Subject: Inherited overloading

    > Patch now, tarchive later:

    Below is the fixed overloading patch.

    Note that in between AMG_names got const on it (a good thing!), but as
    a corollary I needed to cast away const-ness to actually use it
    (since, say, newSVpv does not have const args).

    Enjoy,
