[Bug libstdc++/16415] New: swap overloading for std::vector<bool>::reference

[Martin dot vGagern at gmx dot net]

>From gcc 3.2.3 to 3.3 the
inline void std::swap(_Bit_reference __x, _Bit_reference __y)
became a member of std::vector<bool>:
static void swap(reference __x, reference __y)

This
a) causes backward compatibility problems and
b) prevents one from writing generic code

In CVS, I see this difference between 1.11.2.3.2.1 and 1.18.
I do not know why the swap function overloading was removed, or if it in fact
never entered the main branch, but I suggest adding it again.
