(During my on-going work on checking the mapping rules I came across this bug)

Semantic layering problem, potential showstopper.

FileA:
<owl:Class rdf:ID="example">
   <rdfs:comment>An explanation</rdfs:comment>
</owl:Class>


FileB:
<owl:Class rdf:ID="example">
   <rdfs:comment>A different explanation</rdfs:comment>
</owl:Class>


Currently

FileA DL-entails FileB

and

FileB DL-entails FileA

While being IMO simply incorrect; this also breaks semantic layering since in 
OWL Full (like in RDF) neither entailment holds.
