c++ - template function: null pointer conversion

template<class T>

int main()

  f<int>(0);
  // Error: no match for function 'f(int )'
}


Any reason why the 0 isn't converted to (void *) 0?
(low priority)

Seems to be fixed in the latest beta, but this one still fails (low
priority):

template<class T>
void f(T)
{ }

int main()
{
  f<void *>(0);
  // Error: no match for function 'f(int )'
}
