	overload foo;

	float foo(int i) { return (float) i; }
	int foo() { return 1; }

	main()
	{
		int (*ifp)() = foo;	// point at "int foo()"
(line 9)	float (*ffp)(int) = foo; // point at "float foo(int)"
		int i = 3;

		ifp();
		ffp(i);
	}

Oasys C++ 1.2 complains about "syntax error" at line 9.  Am I doing
something that C++ doesn't permit?
