[mercury-users] overloading

[Michael Day]

This has come up before (and what hasn't?) but I inadvertedly ran into it
again and can't see an obvious way out.

:- func vector * float = vector.
:- func float * vector = vector.

*/3 now has two different definitions and the compiler gets very upset.
Hacking around it by putting them in separate submodules won't help if
they're type class methods.

Any ideas?
