I'd have thought that in the case:

// id anonymous
float f = [anonymous position];

the compiler ought to assume that the method being used is the one
returning a float, or if not at least warn about an implicit cast from
CGPoint to float. Perhaps if it were -(int)position rather than
-(CGPoint)position, you might not expect a warning, but in that case
you would expect a cast, so it shouldn't break.

However, that does appear to be what is happening. In the absence of
any other explanation, I'd call it a compiler bug.
