Just a general clarification (maybe obvious, but who knows): when a 
paper is listed on that page, it's just the paper corresponding to our 
*initial* implementation of the feature. Thus, in general, that number 
does *not* mean that the following changes - in papers, then in the 
published Standard (which is the most important reference now) + 
resolutions of DRs - are not reflected in our actual implementation. In 
general, I would say that the viceversa is true. That said, that 
Bugzilla PR stands, I'm not disagreeing with the specific analysis 
there, it's just matter for the people working on the C++ front-end to 
resolve it (as for any other valid PR).

Thanks,
Paolo.
