[Bug c++/39211] Function pass by reference problem, accepts parameters (int, int) to an (int*, int*) function.

My concern is this function

swap(int *x, int *y){ ... }

with this function call

int x = 5, y = 7;
swap(x,y);

compiles and works just fine.  But this function

swap(int *x){ ... }

with this function call

int x;
swap(x); 

is a compile error.  It's not consistent.
