template definitions spanning modules.

Hi
Consider the following code
module A;
void xx(T:int)(T t) { .. }
void xx(T:float)(T t) { .. }
module B;
import A;
void xx(T:string)(T t) { .. }
void main()
{
xx!(int)(4);
xx(4.5);
xx("abc");
}
The compiler won't let me do this. It will complain that
xx!(int)(4) cannot be instantiated with xx(T:string). If I move
xx(T:string) into its own module, the compiler complains about
ambiguity. If I put them all in the same module, it works fine.
I read about overload sets in the docs and tried the "alias A.xx
xx" suggestion, but the compiler didn't like that either.
Is there any way I can make this work without having to put them
all in the same module?
Thanks in advance.
Jason.
