The calls are not really ambiguous because the operators are different, post
and pre increment. The same error occures when using decrement operators.
Clang, ICC and VC++ accept this code. I've tried different versions of gcc,
from 4.4.7 to 4.9.2 with the same result. gcc -v output:
Using built-in specs.
