[Bug libstdc++/11543] New: basic_filebuf with custom state_type fails to compile

           Summary: basic_filebuf with custom state_type fails to compile
           Product: gcc
           Version: 3.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libstdc++
        AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org
        ReportedBy: peturr02 at ru dot is
                CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org
 GCC build triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu
  GCC host triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu
GCC target triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu

basic_filebuf::seekoff assumes that it is possible to convert from streampos
to pos_type. Since pos_type must be fpos<state_type>, this fails when
state_type is not mbstate_t.

The failure appears at the line:
__ret = _M_file.seekoff(__computed_off * __width, __way, __mode);
It seems that __basic_file::seekoff returns streampos. However, the state
part of the streampos is not used (as __basic_file knows nothing about
codecvt, state_type or even the character type), so it might just as well
return streamoff.
