You mean the method-overwritten warning? But it generates two methods, so maybe it should go to the ambiguity error? Also similar for two arguments: julia> h(x,y) = 1 h (generic function with 1 method) julia> h{X}(x::X,y) = 2 h (generic function with 2 methods) julia> h{X,Y}(x::X,y::Y) = 3 h (generic function with 3 methods) julia> h{Y}(x,y::Y) = 4 h (generic function with 4 methods) julia> h(4,5) 2 I'll open an issue.
