[Bug c++/16056] New: Strange error

["igodard at pacbell dot net" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

class A{};

template<typename T>
A&  Foo(A& i, T t) { return i;}
template<typename T>
A&  operator^(A& i, T t) { return i;}

template<typename T>
int&    Foo(int& i, T t) { return i;}
template<typename T>
int&    operator^(int& i, T t) { return i;}

void Q(){}

int main() {
    int j;
    A a;
    Foo(a, Q);
    a ^ Q;
    Foo(j, Q);
    j ^ Q;

    return 0;
    }


Gives:

~/ootbc/common/test/src$ g++ foo.cc
foo.cc: In function `int main()':
foo.cc:21: error: invalid operands of types `int' and `void ()()' to binary `operator^'


Seems to fail only with "int" and "function pointer"; works with other types. Fails with other operators, but not with named functions.
