No, both constructors are there but are empty.

Now here is the really weird thing.  I decided to experiment with a 
simplified example and so copied the entire files into a test area via a 
copy/paste.  I then eliminated all methods that were not called, 
eliminated all includes that were no longer needed in the classes, and 
modified the important routines to only do the printing and the one 
calling routine in the class to only call the prescribed method and not 
do any other work.  So, besides the constructors (which were empty) the 
base class had two methods and the overload class had one (with the name 
as the final method invoked in the base class).  The only typing I did 
was putting print statements in the final invoked methods to identify 
which one was doing the output.

I expected the same result as the I had been getting.  However, what 
happened was that the output was from the overloaded method, not the 
base method.

Now I am totally baffled.
