+Summary: We do not handle overriden overloads correctly
+
+In this example:
+
+using System;
+
+class A {
+	public virtual void Foo (int i)	{
+		Console.WriteLine ("A.Foo (int i)");
+	}
+	
+	public virtual void Foo (double d) {
+		Console.WriteLine ("A.Foo (double d)");
+	}
+}
+
+class B : A {
+	public override void Foo (double d) {
+		Console.WriteLine ("B.Foo (double d)");
+	}
+	
+	public static void Main () {
+		new B ().Foo (1);
+	}
+}
+
+We print
+
+B.Foo (double d)
+
+While MS prints
+
+A.Foo (int i)
+
+The problem is that according to the spec, 14.3 Member lookup:
+A member lookup of a name N in a type T is processed as follows:
+
+First, the set of all accessible (10.5) members named N declared in T and
+the base types (14.3.1) of T is constructed. >>> Declarations that include
+an override modifier are excluded from the set. <<< If no members named N
+exist and are accessible, then the lookup produces no match, and the
+following steps are not evaluated. 
+
+We do not abide by the clause `Declarations that include an override
+modifier are excluded from the set.' Our member lookup is returning B.Foo.
+
+As such, when we do overload resolve, we follow the clause:
+`6  If N is applicable with respect to A (§14.4.2.1), then all methods
+declared in a base type of T are removed from the set.'
+
+Thus, the int overload is incorrectly removed from the applicable members list.
