        !            22:    for fast comparison of two possibilities.  This number is an

        !            36:    is reported.

        !            38:    If two candidates agree on user-defined type conversions,

        !            40:    another uses base), then that alternative is silently chosen.
        !            41: 
        !            42:    If two candidates have a non-monotonic derived/base pointer
