[Bug c++/15898] New: Error with templated operator delete not detected

[bangerth at dealii dot org]

3.7.3.2/2 specifically says that an operator delete that is a template 
shall have at least two function arguments. That makes sense, since the 
first one is fixed to be void*, so in order to deduce template 
arguments, we need at least a second function argument. However, as  
originally noted in PR 15890, this does not trigger an error: 
--------------- 
template < typename T > 
void operator delete ( void* raw ) {} 
 
int main() { 
  char* a = new char; 
  delete a; 
} 
--------------- 
 
All gcc versions simply accept this.
