Currently the compiler doesn't implement these checks, but arguably it should.
For example the following will issue a linker error:

-----
class Foo
{
    void test() { }
    void test() { }
}

void main()
{
}
-----

Implementing checks is an enhancement that is already filed somewhere in
bugzilla.
