* selector.c (sel_getTypedSelector): Return NULL if there are
multiple selectors with conflicting types.
* objc/runtime.h (sel_getTypedSelector): Updated documentation.
In gcc/testsuite/:
2011-02-28 Nicola Pero <nicola.pero@meta-innovation.com>
* objc.dg/gnu-api-2-sel.m: Test that sel_getTypedSelector return
NULL in case of a selector with conflicting types.
* obj-c++.dg/gnu-api-2-sel.mm: Same change.
