Well, to be honest I didn't test it fully. If you call it with a type 
that doesn't have a foo member function, the overload is indeed masked.
I don't know why it doesn't work when using &&, must be a bug.

Of course, the fact that it produces ICE shows it's a bug in itself. I 
don't really know what really works and what doesn't atm.
The first example of this link, however, seems to work: 
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2008/n2634.html

I am fairly disappointed to see it actually doesn't work :(. Hopefully 
it will be fixed before the 4.4 release.
