--- Comment #1 from RazvanN <razvan.nitu1305@gmail.com> ---
Specializations have nothing to do with this. The spec clearly states that nested functions cannot be overloaded (point 3 of [1]). This codes compiles:

```
void main(){

    void foo(T : int)() {
    }


    struct S(T : int) {
    }
}
```

It has been argued in the past that this limitation should be lifted, however, Walter opposes it (I don't remember the reason). So closing this as WONTFIX.
