In real live "C++" world I often have parent classes with function f()
and an extended class which also uses the function name f(..) but with
other, possibly class specific, variables, which then calls parent
f()... I do not see a good reason to enforce that both functions must be
exactly the same when extending, especially since c::f() does not get
called automatically, _when_ overwriting it in class d.
