 Benjamin,
 3181 is about the following:
   std::sqrt(1)
 and 
   int i; std::sqrt(i)
 giving overload resolution ambiguities. Since the overloads are only 
 provided for floating point types, this is not surprising, so I would say 
 that this is actually standards conforming behavior, right? In this case, 
 we should close this report.
 
 Regards
   Wolfgang
