depending on source code form (even if you can get it) is highly
error-prone. consider it UB.
also, i think that you'd better not guess, but ask the user to
explicitly instantiate the methods with `alias` -- this way you
have to write less hacky code, and the user will have more
control over what is bound. you may provide helper mixin
templates to instantiate n-ary functions with given set of types
too. this is slightly more work on the user side, but it doesn't
depend on hacks and undocumented things.
