I have a variety of shorts, for top layer bottom layer and all layers.  I
know of no way to eliminate the DRC errors.  I wish there was a way to
declare in a package definition "yes I know these overlap, I don't want to
hear about it", or maybe have DRC not look inside packages or regions of
your definition.  You can make some fancy constructs with Eagle scripting,
external programs, and ULPs, but most of them end up creating a large number
of DRC errors.  Unfortunately this has made DRC nearly useless for me and I
don't run it on anything but small boards.
