A primary-package top-level decl whose leaf also names a bundled module
(`type sym` vs `import sym`; the lib/test->fnmatch->ascii -T floor's
`ascii` module vs a `@test fn ascii`) collided in the flat scope: #23's
installtop dup-check false-fired "duplicate fn/type" where cstage
coexists. cstage keys the module name out of the value namespace by
PROMOTING the same-leaf SK_USE in place to the value kind with
use_alias=1 (cmd/wcc/check.c:2831/2848/2871/2907/2928/2951), so one
correctly-kinded sym serves bare refs (call/structlit/var) while
`name.member` still resolves the module via the `kind==SK_USE ||
use_alias` N_DOT guards (check.c:87/1337).
This REVERSES wwstage's documented two-sym coexistence design
(lib/ww/sym.ww scopelookupuselocal): keeping the SK_USE as a separate
coexisting sym ripples into every bare-reference resolver (~25
scopelookup sites), and a missed site is a byte-id-consistent-but-wrong
cat-A risk the gate cannot prove away — the same failure mode retired
with the name-keyed variant-match cluster. The promote model is correct
by construction: one sym of the right kind, identical to cstage.
sym gains a use_alias field; the three N_DOT/N_CALL module-qualified
guards honor use_alias. cstage installs every SK_USE in a dedicated
first pass, so its value-arm promote is order-INDEPENDENT; wwstage
installs in source order, so BOTH directions of the collision are
promoted to reach cstage's identical single-sym end state:
- use-before-value (`import aa` then `fn aa`): installtop promotes the
pre-installed SK_USE to the value kind (use_alias=1).
- value-before-use (`fn aa` then `import aa`): installdecl's N_USE arm
promotes the pre-installed value sym in place (set use_alias=1,
no coexisting SK_USE), mirroring cstage's self-import N_USE arm
(check.c:2823-2834 `if (prev) prev->use_alias = 1`).
Both orders compile + are cs/ww byte-identical AND byte-identical to
each other. Cannot split: promote without the guards leaves
`name.member` red on the promoted sym; the guards without promote are
inert (no use_alias is ever set) — no bisect-clean intermediate. (#30)
Pins (910/997): modfn_coexist_ok (use-before-value) AND
modfn_coexist_vbu_ok (value-before-use) both accept on cstage + are
cs/ww byte-id + run to exit 6 (bare fn and qualified module both
resolve); the dup_fn row still rejects both stages (regression). fnmatch
byte-id holds. The order-dependence is exactly what regresses silently,
so both orders are pinned.
