And from the PR summary:

> in the case where the template name is unresolved or overloaded

This phrasing worries me a little bit. Are you saying that you might mangle the 
name of `foo<SomeT>` in one way, when there's also a `foo<Some, Other, Args>` 
in scope, and in a different way, when there's not? That doesn't seem 
conforming. So I imagine it's more likely that I'm misunderstanding what you 
mean by "might be overloaded" / "is overloaded". Could you explain for my 
information, and perhaps also adjust the wording of these code comments to make 
the explanation less needed?

Specifically, I think it would be non-conforming if the TU

    // https://godbolt.org/z/YjPqMd
    template<char *> void foo();
    char arr[6];
    extern template void foo<arr>();  // #1
    int main() { foo<arr>(); }

could not be linked against the TU

    template<int> int foo();
    template<char *> void foo();  // is this "overloading"?
    extern char arr[6];
    template<> void foo<arr>() {}  // #2

because lines #1 and #2 disagreed about the way to mangle `foo<arr>`. (Again, 
I'm pretty sure you haven't made them disagree... but I remain unclear on 
what's meant by "overloading" in this PR, if it's //not// this.)
