Suppression not working for overridden Methods

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Suppression doesn't work if the method that should be suppressed is overridden. 

Example class structure:
class A {

  public void dontCallMe(Object someParameter) {...}
    ...
  }
}

public final class B extends A {
  @Override
  public void dontCallMe(Object someParameter) {...}
    ...
  }  
}

I try suppressing dontCallMe using "suppress(method(B.class, "someMethod", 
Object.class))". This results in the following exception given below.

Workaround: suppress all methods with the same signature 
("suppress(method(B.class, Object.class));"). 

Several matching methods found, please specify the argument parameter types so 
that PowerMock can determine which method you're referring to.
Matching methods in class B were:
void dontCallMe( java.lang.Object.class )
void dontCallMe( java.lang.Object.class )
