 Would you have a test case for this please ? It would be much easier
 to fix if given one :-)

+Ravi: the sample is trivial from the description. Here it is one, anyway.
+using A;
+using B;
+namespace A { class a {} }
+namespace B { class a {} }
+class T {
+        static void Main() {
+                a val  = new a();
+        }
+}
+
+csc won't compile the program, issuing the following error:
+name-ambig.cs(7,3): error CS0104: 'a' is an ambiguous reference
+name-ambig.cs(4,21): (Location of symbol related to previous error)
+name-ambig.cs(3,21): (Location of symbol related to previous error)
