// [over.match] 13.3 tells us where overload resolution occurs.
// [over.match.call] 13.3.1.1 says that in
//  (...( postfix-expression )...) (expression-list)
// the postfix-expression must be the name of a function (amongst some other
// choices). This means comma and conditional exprs cannot be placed there.
// This clause is the only one I can find which bans
//  (cond ? fna : fnb) (arglist)
// which would be a major headache to have to implement.
// [over.over] 13.4 tells us when the use of a function name w/o arguments is
// resolved to the address of a particular function. These are determined by
// the context of the function name, and it does allow more complicated primary
// expressions.

// Using a naked function name is rather strange, we used to warn about it
// (rather inconsistently), but subsequent changes broke the warning. Make
// sure that doesn't happen again.
