Keith Seitz e15c3eb45b Fix overload resolution involving rvalue references and cv qualifiers.
The following patch fixes several outstanding overload resolution problems
with rvalue references and cv qualifiers in the test suite. The tests for
these problems typically passed with one compiler version and failed with
another. This behavior occurs because of the ordering of the overloaded
functions in the debug info. So the first best match "won out" over the
a subsequent better match.

One of the bugs addressed by this patch is the failure of rank_one_type to
account for type equality of two overloads based on CV qualifiers.  This was
leading directly to problems evaluating rvalue reference overload quality,
but it is also highlighted in gdb.cp/oranking.exp, where two test KFAIL as
a result of this shortcoming.

I found the overload resolution code committed with the rvalue reference
patch (f9aeb8d49) needlessly over-complicated, and I have greatly simplified
it. This fixes some KFAILing tests in gdb.exp/rvalue-ref-overload.exp.

gdb/ChangeLog

	* gdbtypes.c (LVALUE_REFERENCE_TO_RVALUE_BINDING_BADNESS)
	DIFFERENT_REFERENCE_TYPE_BADNESS): Remove.
	(CV_CONVERSION_BADNESS): Define.
	(rank_one_type): Remove overly restrictive rvalue reference
	rank checks.
	Add cv-qualifier checks and subranks for type equality.
	* gdbtypes.h (REFERENCE_CONVERSION_RVALUE,
	REFERENCE_CONVERSION_CONST_LVALUE, CV_CONVERSION_BADNESS,
	CV_CONVERSION_CONST, CV_CONVERSION_VOLATILE): Declare.

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog

	* gdb.cp/oranking.cc (test15): New function.
	(main): Call test15 and declare additional variables for testing.
	* gdb.cp/oranking.exp: Remove kfail status for "p foo4(&a)" and
	"p foo101('abc')" tests.
	* gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-overloads.exp: Remove kfail status for
	"lvalue reference overload" test.
	* gdb.cp/rvalue-ref-params.exp: Remove kfail status for
	"print value of f1 on Child&& in f2" test.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
