Hm... I don't know. the error specifically says it's not supported. But 
it seems to me odd that it wouldn't. What is the harm in letting the 
derived function use inferred return type?

I don't know the reasoning behind the error condition, so I can say it's 
definitely not a bug, but I don't know why it's this way. Perhaps 
there's some situation that I'm not thinking of.
