your analysis is correct, B::B requires the ctors & dtors of its members to be
instantiated.[14.7.1]/2 says 'the function template specialization
is imlicitly instantiated when the specialization is referenced in a context that
requires that function definition to exist.' B::B requires ptr<A>::~ptr to exist.
