infinite-recursion-testcase.cpp
It prints this bogus warning:
> $ c++ -Wall -o infinite-recursion-testcase infinite-recursion-testcase.cpp
> infinite-recursion-testcase.cpp:9:87: warning: all paths through this
> function will call itself [-Winfinite-recursion]

The warning is bogus because it calls itself with a different object. There is
no problem with infinite recursion there.
As long as there is variability in any of the arguments - there is no problem
with infinite recursion.
