Referring to the section you quote: it says that the compiler is free to choose either of
the two possibilities. The second one is to convert to a temporay of type "cv1 T2",
which in your case is "const B", just as explained in the example there. But the
copy constructor of B _is_ accessible, so gcc would be allowed to accept the code.
What do I miss?
