The discussion of issue 1001 seemed to have settled on the approach of doing the 9.3.4.6 [dcl.fct] transformations immediately to the function template declaration, so that the original form need not be remembered. However, the example in 13.10.3 [temp.deduct] paragraph 8 suggests otherwise:
template <class T> int f(T[5]);
int I = f<int>(0);
int j = f<void>(0); // invalid array
One way that might be addressed would be to separate the concepts of the type of the template that participates in overload resolution and function matching from the type of the template that is the source for template argument substitution. (See also the example in paragraph 3 of the same section.)
