Ben, are you sure about that? My copy of Stroustrup 3rd Ed. (section 7.7) explicitly states the '&' is optional, and the compiler I'm presently using (alas, for a non-Palm platform) is happy either way.
I was wrong. C++ will allow implicit function-to-pointer conversion, as indicated by $4.3 in the ISO C++ (1999) standard.
I think the error message was wrong -- it showed the types from the original conversion step, rather than the types that mismatched. I'll see if this still fails like this with the current compiler sources.
