Linking errors on Scala 2.11 if an `object` is named `class`

See original GitHub issue

The following code works fine on Scala 2.12, but does not link on Scala 2.11:

object `class` {
  def foo() = {
    println("Hello, World!")
  }
}

`class`.foo()

Just treat this issue as a backlog.

We don’t really do backlog for compiler bugs. 😉 Either there is a very good reason not to fix something, and we close it as won’t fix, or we fix it ASAP. And for the former case, there are exceptionally few issues. Overall there are 20 won’t-fix bugs that are not internal nor 0.6.x-only, and not all of those are compiler bugs. And with this issue fixed, we are back to 0 open compiler bugs.
