A script cannot be attached to a GameObject when there is another script that is generic with the same name in a different folder
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached “ClassNameBug.zip” project
2. Open the “SampleScene”
3. In the “Assets/0param” folder find “MyScript.cs”
4. Attach the script to a GameObject within the Project Hierarchy
5. Observe the results
Expected result: The “MyScript.cs” file is added as a Component
Actual result: An error message is shown

Resolution Note:
The case is very specific with several unlikely circumstances and there is a lot of ways to avoid it. Here are a few:
* Put scripts in different assemblies (Just creating AssemblyDefinition file next to one of the scripts works)
* Put scripts in different namespaces
* Use different class names (if a generic class is inheriting a MonoBehaviour you might use suffix "Base" as it is likely to get inherited by class that you'll actually use on GameObject)
