// A *self-contained* demonstration of the problem follows...
// Test this by running `tsc` on the command-line, rather than through another build tool such as Gulp, Webpack, etc.

declare function vv (): void
/** @deprecated */
declare function vv (v: string): void
declare function vv (v?: string): void

h([|vv|])

Research direction

Start by running the self-contained TypeScript snippet with tsc and confirm that the deprecated overload is not reported. Investigate contextual typing and signature resolution for the function passed to h; done means the deprecated vv signature is recognized and the expected diagnostic appears.
