If you know what is a "covariant return", it means that we still don't
implement it when the covariant return requires a pointer adjustment (e.g.
multiple inheritance), within variadic functions.

I see. In the meanwhile I have found this, seems useful:

I concur, it would be nice to have a c++98status.html and also a
c++03status.html!
(Giovanni would enjoy working on the latter, I guess!)

Yes, I'm already working on it as you have noticed. It's just that the
differences between C++98 and C++03 are mostly small details and corrections,
so I don't think most users would be interested in it. As for c++98 status, I
think it's mostly useless since we implement already all the main sections of
the standard.

Yeah! ;)
