So should I should submit a bug report against libstdc++ that it is not
ignoring the initial value of iostate for get_date and other get_*
locale functions?
I would, but I have no say in what happens to it, at least not
until the standard is clarified to specify how these functions
should treat the iostate argument (actually not even then :)
I do intend to propose that they treat it the same as the get()
functions, i.e., that they too ignore its initial value.
