Julia has parametric types though.
f{T}(x::Vector{T}, b::Int) = 1
f{T<:Real}(x::Vector{T}, b) = 2
f([1,2], 5)

Is there a way to auto-generate something appropriate that takes care of
the ambiguity with Bool that pops up frequently, for numerical methods that
never intend being called with Bool arg(s)?

I've always felt that arbitrarily breaking a tie is just asking for trouble
when ties actually occur since the choice that's made is rather likely to
be wrong. At this point it seems fairly clear that definition-time warnings
about method ambiguities are usually too annoying, especially between
unr
