This is just silly.
Changing enum defaultVal = 1 to defaultVal = 2 should never
result in calling a
different overload.
This does:
------------------------
import core.stdc.stdio;
enum x = 10000;
enum y = 40000;
int foo(short s) { return 1; }
int foo(long s) { return 2; }
void main()
{
printf("%d\n", foo(x));
printf("%d\n", foo(y));
}
-------------------------
A bool is an integer with the range 0..1
This "feature" never has been useful to me. It has caused bug.
Additionally, the behavior is inconsistent :
int i = 1;
foo(i); // Don't call the bool version.
