The part of the std you quote says 'sub objects' not 'base sub objects' do not
reside at the same address. The member of B3 is a sub obect of D. See the
definition of sub obect in [1.8]/2 which explicitly says a sub object
can be a member or a base. It also gives the algorithm for determining the
most derived object of any particular sub object. In this case,
the direct base B1 of D and the B1 base in the B3::v[0] member have the same
most derived object. Therefore they cannot be allocated at the same address.
