We should get a consensus on how to handle multiple definitions of a
target inside a buildfile.
1. multiple targets defined in ONE buildfile is an error, while
definitions via <import> is correct
  --> modify the test (more tests)
  --> modify the sources
2. multiple target-defintions are not allowed in general
  --> modify the sources
3. multiple target-defintions ARE allowed in general
  --> modify the test (expect a simple log statement)
  

2 would kill target overrides in import and 3 is plain evil.  My vote
goes for 1.

I vote for 1 also.
+1 for 1
I am +1 for option 1, though I do note Gus Heck's point about the merits 
of an override option, though of course that gets controversial in the 
details:

C++ off by default; virtual enables, virtual functions not valid in ctor
Java: on by default; final disables, virtual methods valid in ctor
C#: off by default, override enables, dont know about ctor semantics.
then there is public, private, etc.
