Description
Compiling shaders with the same name clobbers one of the outputs.
This was actually found by @LegNeato and logged in the cargo-gpu repo https://github.com/Rust-GPU/cargo-gpu/issues/85, but during investigation (https://github.com/Rust-GPU/cargo-gpu/pull/110) it seems the problem happens further up in SpirvBuilder.

Research direction
Start by tracing the SpirvBuilder multimodule compilation path described in this issue, then review cargo-gpu issue #85 and pull request #110 for the reported duplicate-name behavior and investigation context. Reproduce a compilation with multiple shaders sharing a name and verify that each output remains distinct without clobbering.
