     Compiler error C2666
 
     'identifier' : 'number' overloads have similar conversions
 
     The specified overloaded function or operator was ambiguous.
 
     This error is caused by formal parameter lists that are too
     similar to resolve ambiguity.
 
     An explicit cast of one or more of the actual parameters can
     resolve the ambiguity.
 
     The following is an example of this error:
 
          void func( int, float ) {};
          void func( float, int ) {};
 
          func( 1, 1 );        // error, same conversion for each func
          func( 1, (float)1 )  // OK
