[Bug libstdc++/37547] [c++0x] minmax with initializer_list gives incorrect results

Thanks for catching this early, apparently this is a fundamental issue with the
current proposal: having such overloads returning const refs to elements of the
initializer_list is a very bad idea, because the initializer_list goes away
upon function return. The important point here is that when the
initializer_list is build it contains a *copy* of v, not v itself, which thus
goes away when the initializer_list dies.

Let's fix the proposal... ;)
