Related to bug 90423, if the code is changed to:
public class Overloading {

	public static <S extends String> S foo() { 
	    System.out.println("String"); 
	    return null; 
	  }
	  
	public static <N extends Number> N foo() { 
	    System.out.println("Number");
	    return null; 
	}
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		Overloading.<String>foo();
		Overloading.<Number>foo();
		Overloading o = new Overloading();
	        foo();
	}
}

it compiles fine, but javac reports:
Overloading.java:17: reference to foo is ambiguous, both method <S>foo() in
Overloading and method <N>foo() in Overloading match
            foo();
            ^
