chawan v0.3 and error message

So I’ve been running chawan v0.2.2 for a while now, good little browser. Since version v0.3 chawan got hint support, that’s right, just like vimperator used to.

so today, I compiled the latest nim (2.2.6) and chawan (g73577b5d). with:

make TARGET=release j=4

the browser builds and functions ok, but during run time it gives out tons of error message about ‘please move xxxfunction to your own namespace to avoid name clashes’. So I tried to rollback to the v0.3 release and the problem persists. I don’t known nim, are these compiler error I can somehow disable? or some kind of ‘source level debugging tags’? (I don’t know what’s the correct technical term to describe this)
