Description
I have a Typescript compiler error coming from reflect-metadata's index.d.ts
"Module augmentation cannot introduce new names in the top level scope"
I am using version 0.1.10 and Typescript 1.8.7. I'm not in a position to upgrade Typescript yet, but I'm confused because I'm sure I never had this problem before with the same versions.
Can you think of anything else that could affect this?

Research direction
Start with reflect-metadata's index.d.ts and reproduce the error using TypeScript 1.8.7 and reflect-metadata 0.1.10. Compare the declaration with the module-augmentation rules for that compiler version and determine what changed from the previously working setup; done means identifying a confirmed cause and a compatible correction or workaround.
