--- Comment #4 from RazvanN ---
This is not a bug, it's the desired behavior since alias is used to include
functions in the same overload set. It can't issue an error when an alias has
the same name as a function, otherwise it would be impossible to bring other
functions to the overload set.
For example: if you have 3 foo overloads:
void foo() {}
void foo(int a) {}
void foo(int a, int b) {}
and you want to bring an imported function in the same overload set you do:
alias foo = path.to.import.foo
The problem in your example is that the 2 functions you bring in the same
overload set have the exact same signature and are in the same file. So the
compiler let's alias your function because it thinks you want to have the in
the same overload set, but when you try to call it, it issues an error because
it does not know which one it should call. This is correct behavior.
Closing as invalid.

There is an order dependency:
void gm(){assert(0);}
alias gm fn;
void fn(){assert(0);}
and fnp points to gm, but
void gm(){assert(0);}
void fn(){assert(0);}
alias gm fn;
and then fnp points to fn.
