But then we have a defect in the standard, because according to the standard Stage2 goes ahead according to the grammar, on input_iterators, and only at the end, Stage 3 kicks in with the role of scanf...
Maybe you and I can work on new wording for stage 2 in Berlin? ;-) (I promised to provide wording for issue 23 long time ago, so this might be a good opportunity for me to make good on it.)
... basically, the standard, with such separation in Stages (first, grammar on input_iterators, then scanf), demands an overall behavior which is identical to that of glibc.
I don't think there is much point in diverging from glibc without such a clarification in the C++ standard.
