For the sake of nitpicking correctness, I cannot help but point out that there is nothing wrong with the call of f(false) above unless you drop the "const" from f's parameter type.

Yeah, I realized that after posting it, and hoped nobody would notice.

void f(int const*); bool x = false; f(&x); // error!

thanks-for-nothing-ly y'rs, dave
