	The higher voltage one will send all its ucrrent to the lower voltage
	one, overheating itself in the process.  The lower voltage one will
	absorb this current, resulting in heating.  OK, it won't go to zero
	output, but the higher will contribute very little.  Except to overheat
	itself....  With luck, the inherent current limiting will prevent it
	from instant death, but it WILL overheat.
