Sorry for misunderstanding, Andrew pointed out how I get it all wrong. Reading 
your mail again, you propose two possible fixes. Like you I am not in the 
position to see which would be the best solution.

So we need C++ FE maintainers to comment if they agree with one of those fixes 
at least. Though for me the first solution looks more plausible.

Thanks again,
