Proposed resolution (10/00):
Change 12.2.4.3 [over.ics.rank] bullet 3.1 sub-bullet 3 from
S1 and S2 differ only in their qualification conversion and yield similar types T1 and T2 (7.3.6 [conv.qual] ), respectively, and the cv-qualification signature of type T1 is a proper subset of the cv-qualification signature of type T2.to
S1 and S2 differ only in their qualification conversion and yield similar types T1 and T2 (7.3.6 [conv.qual] ), respectively, and the cv-qualification signature of type T1 is a proper subset of the cv-qualification signature of type T2, and S1 is not the deprecated string literal array-to-pointer conversion (7.3.3 [conv.array] ).
In 12.2.4.3 [over.ics.rank] , we have
int f(const int *); int f(int *); int i; int j = f(&i); // Calls f(int *)—end example] or, if not that,
void f(char *); void f(const char *); f("abc");The two conversion sequences differ only in their qualification conversions, and the destination types are similar. The cv-qualification signature of "char *", is a proper subset of the cv-qualification signature of "const char *", so f(char *) is chosen, which is wrong. The rule should be like the one for conversion to bool — the deprecated conversion should be worse than another exact match that is not the deprecated conversion.
