interface IC
{
    abstract void foo();

    abstract void bar();
}

class AC : IC
{
    override void foo() { }
}

class CC : AC
{
    override void bar() { }
}
-----

$ Error: function test.CC.bar does not override any function, did you mean to override 'test.IC.bar'?

If we're allowed to use 'override' for implementing abstract methods in AC, why is it not allowed in CC?

I want these to work because it makes it clearer from reading the class that these methods can be called with a reference to a base class (and in fact the base class can call such a method itself). Disallowing 'override' in this case makes the code less clear.
