Overload resolution fails to recognize baz in the following example to be a valid candidate for an override:
interface Foo {
int baz();
}
class Bar : Foo {
auto baz() { return cast(int)1; }
}
pragma(msg, typeof(Foo.baz).stringof); // int()
pragma(msg, typeof(Bar.baz).stringof); // int()
main.d(8): Error: function foo.Bar.baz of type () overrides but is not covariant with foo.Foo.baz of type int()
It seems like auto isn't resolved before the covariance check.
