Posts in Trash are conflicting with published posts

[guillaumemolter]

This problem is occurring on a vanilla trunk install

How to reproduce:

• You need to use the "Post name" permalink setting.
• Create a page with "this-is-a-test" as the permalink.
• Publish the page and trash it.
• Create a post with "this-is-a-test" as the permalink.
• Publish the post and try to view it, you will get a 404.

This doesn't seem to be a problem if the two posts have the same post_type

Potential fixes:

• WordPress should either "ignore" deleted pages on the front-end/get_posts to prevent conflicts or the admin should not let you create a post with the same slug as a deleted post as it does for published/draft posts.
