Thank you SO much for your testing and reviews, I very much appreciate all the help you've given me.  I'm sorry that this has become such a huge patch, I really wish it was something I could have done in smaller increments, but that doesn't seem like it is possible since it is changing something so fundamental, and the fallout from that is huge.

All of those 'Info' types contain significantly more information, which we really don't have a need for here.  Basically all this patch is doing is using the FunctionTemplateDecl* that was already in the list and generalizing it a bit.  AND unfortunately, the only commonality between FunctionTemplateDecl and FunctionDecl is NamedDecl.  

So any type we would use would end up causing an additional allocation here, and make its use require us to unpack it :/

I guess what I'm saying, is I'm not sure what that would look like in a way that wouldn't make this worse.  Do you have an idea you could share that would improve that?

Yikes!  Thanks for catching this!

Ah, looks like the static-casts weren't necessary anyway.  No idea why I thought they were.  Removed.  See comment above about the refactor.
