Fails with 8.49.2. Comeau works.


Hi Walter,

when faced with the following simple program

  template <typename Integer> void f(Integer x);

  template <typename T> void f(T x)
  {
  }

  int main()
  {
    f(1);
  }

the compiler is deceived to think that the call in main is ambiguous. This is a reduced test case for a failure affecting boost::dynamic_bitset. You might also want to investigate why two of the four dynamic_bitset's test files (#3 and #4) produce an out of memory error.

Thanks,
Gennaro.
