Is this right, or a bug?

[Nick Glencross]

Hi Guys,

I'm not sure if this is right or not. I've checked through 
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html#cxx and can't see this listed.

What I've got boils down to is shown in the following example. Even 
though 'method(int a)' is defined in 'class1', it isn't available in 
'main' through 'class2'. There's a compiler error saying that 'method 
(int)' doesn't exist, only 'method ()'.

Changing 'method' to 'method2' in the lines highlighted, the problem 
goes away.

This makes me think that the clash with the virtual method is breaking 
things. Anyone know what is going ok?

Cheers,

Nick Glencross
