I currently have an haxe extern for nodejs

public static function downloadTool(url:String, ?dest:String, ?auth:String):js.lib.Promise<String>;
public overload static function extractTar(file:String, ?dest:String, ?flags:Array<String>):js.lib.Promise<String>;
public overload static function extractTar(file:String, ?dest:String, ?flags:String):js.lib.Promise<String>;

Than i use it like this:

var ext = 'tar.gz';
ToolCache.downloadTool('somefilepath.$ext').then(path -> {
    ToolCache.extractTar(path, 'somefilepath');
});

also fine with:

@:overload(function(file:String, ?dest:String, ?flags:Array<String>):js.lib.Promise<String> {})
public static function extractTar(file:String, ?dest:String, ?flags:String):js.lib.Promise<String>;

function main() {

Fails like this on Js, Flash, Php, Python, Lua.

Other targets correctly error with

source/Main.hx:7: characters 2-46 : Ambiguous overload, candidates follow
source/Main.hx:2: characters 27-37 : ... (file : String, ?dest : Null<String>, ?flags : Null<Array<String>>) -> Void
source/Main.hx:3: characters 27-37 : ... (file : String, ?dest : Null<String>, ?flags : Null<String>) -> Void

This puts the blame on pf_pad_nulls = false.

thank you @Simn for the log and full example.
I was unfortunately the last few days very booked. 👍
