 This is not a bug.

 | class A
 | {
 | public:
 | virtual void toimplement () = 0;
 | void implemented () { toimplement(); }
 | virtual void operator ++ () = 0;
 | void operator ++ (int) { printf ("Postfix inc\n"); }

 | class B : public A {
 | public:
 | void toimplement () { printf ("IMPLEMENTATION of pure\n"); }
 | void operator ++ () { printf ("Prefix inc\n"); }
        ^^^^^^^^^^^
 
 This hides the name of the postfix function in A.
 
 In short: don't overload a virtual function.
