This is one of those weird things. I believe it is intentional, but
I feel it should be a bug. Basically, overload sets cannot cross
mixin borders. So if two mixins create a function with the same name,
they don't overload properly.

I'd say add it to BugZilla if it's not already there. Comment on the
relevant bug if it is - this is not good for the language.
