It is in the committee draft 
<http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/lwg-active.html#CD1>.  The 
compiler in TR1 mode is not obliged to comply with it, and should do it 
only as far as it is reasonable to do so.  It is not clear what is 
reasonable in this case, in that it involves a tradeoff between general 
applicability and Stroustrup's use case.

Thanks.
