RE>multiple arity method overloading
I've never used C++. I don't think it has an open stack, so it doesn't face
the same problem. Dylan doesn't use an open-stack, but as I recall it
nevertheless has the same restriction. There might be something on the subject
in the Dylan Reference Manual (available on the web somewhere).
The marker subterfuge may still encounter problems if other procedures might
leave a confounding marker lying around. It's hard to predict what might be on
an open stack.
I'll try to get back to you with more later.
