I will try to provide a minimal example tomorrow. The functions in fvmeta are
not the problem, the calls to them (with fvmeta:: prefixed) are, I do not see how
that could work for overloads not declared before the call?

I have learnt lots of surprising things about ADL and how it works the last few
days though, and it could very well be that I have more surprises ahead of me :-)
