Is the declaration of two member functions which differ only in their
ctor-qualifiers valid c++?
eg.

class A {
public:
   T& elem(int n)const;
   T& elem(int n);
};

The April Working Paper says 
8.4 [dcl.fct.def]
5 A  cv-qualifier-seq can be part of a non-static member function decla
  ration, non-static member function definition, or  pointer  to  member
  function only; see _class.this_.  It is part of the function type.
				    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Thanks in advance
