When you *call* functions, not when you initiate them! At least it shouldn't
be since it makes no sense at all.

Take a macro:

#declare V = 0.1:
#macro MyMacro(V) V*2 #end
sphere {x, 0.1}

Here's there's no problem since the parameter in the macro doesn't conflict
with already declared variables. You can still call the macro with the
declared variable and *then* it will be used:

#declare B = MyMacro(V);

But with functions a conflict happens at the time of declaring the function
and that's all wrong.
