Then I strongly suggest you read the thred in comp.lang.c++.moderated
where the PR originates from.

| I know no one named Paul M.  He seems not here, either.

Good.  As reported in earlier comments, the PR originated from a
discussion in comp.lang.c++.moerated.  I suggest you google and read
the thread before sending more comments on this PR.
