I don't think any of those tests would be made correct simply by replacing 'f'
with '&f'
Maybe they would have been accepted by GCC 2.95 with the ampersand present, but
current GCC correctly requires '&C::f'
I know some users want the compiler to suggest how to fix their errors, but
it's hard to make a useful suggestion for most of the nearly infinite number of
invalid expressions users can come up with. The suggestion is misleading in
too many cases (specifically, the "did you forget the '&'?" hint doesn't solve
the problem in any of the examples given in this PR.)
