Right, but I think it's not a big problem since such overloaded functions will not be shown at the same time as only one of them might do the real work most cases. Simply noticing one of them is a performance bottle neck would be helpful to the developer, I guess. Even if it's not the case, one still can see and identify the correct one using the -v option. For me, it's just annoying when (unimportant) C++ symbols occupy too much space in a limited terminal width.
