Don't be silly. I think everyone here has concluded that the problematic
case is where the function is being called with just literals. In Ada,
literals are univeral reals, but in C/C++ a literal like 1.0 has type
double. That means that in C++, overloading will disambiguate the call
to refer to the GLdouble version (assuming that GLdouble is double).
