Description: routines can't have parameters of the same name

When compiling a C program that contains a call to a routine, that has
the same name as one of it's formal parameters, results in the compiler
error:

	Fatal error -- error in P2/18; please submit CSR

Example:

	void name_error(name_error)
	int name_error;
	{
	  ;
	}
	
	void name_error_test()
	{
	  name_error(0);
	}

Clearly the solution is  to avoid using function names for parameters.
