As one would expect, since this type is most certainly
visible. However, if a compiler has other fixed point types
visible (certainly permissible), then it would be ambiguous.
The code in question is really non-portable at best, wrong
at worst, but not illegal if there is only one fixed-point
type visible. At least that's my reading.
