--- Comment #4 from hsteoh at quickfur.ath.cx ---
Wow this one is pretty funny:
-----
short foo() { return 1; }
int foo() { return 2; }
void main() {
    short s = foo();
    int i = foo();

    import std.stdio;
    writeln(s);
    writeln(i);
}
-----

Compiler output:
-----
test.d(4): Error: test.foo called with argument types () matches both:
test.d(1):     test.foo()
and:
test.d(2):     test.foo()
test.d(5): Error: test.foo called with argument types () matches both:
test.d(1):     test.foo()
and:
test.d(2):     test.foo()
-----

That's hilarious, since there's no way you can actually disambiguate between
them! (Not that I know of, anyway.)
