perhaps..
A) Dont stack them on top of each other,
B) Check to see if something else is there,
C) Dont make any turfs/objs/mobs/or areas! :D

obj
    wall
        icon='wall.dmi'
        density=1
        opacity=1
mob
    verb
        Wall()
            set category = "Build"
            for(var/obj/O in usr.loc)
                if(O)
                    usr<<"Please dont stack items!"
                    return
            new/obj/wall(usr.loc)

No, a (presumably) quicker way would be to use 
if(locate(/obj) in loc)
    usr << "Do not stack objects!"
    return

If there are a jillion things in that spot, though, they'll get a jillion errors =P

Or.. you can make it.. everytime you drop an item on the same spot, the amount of it becomes 2. So when you pick it up, you would get 2 of the object. Which is fairly simple to do.

That return'll stop it.
