[Bug c++/43127] Inconsistent and odd constructor calls.

Scratch that, that's a error from a file that shouldn't even exist. Copied the
given code to a clean project and it compiled. So bug, but a miscommunication
in that the constructor is being implicitly add so that the original form is
trying to pass a anonymous object as a argument to the implicitly added
constructor, which is calling the protected typecast operator.

Still, that leaves the issue that the following has two different behaviours
when they are logically the same. I'm sure this is just a failure on my part to
understand the standard, where is that covered?

ptr Ret(new object(*this));
return Ret;

return Ret(new object(*this));
