If libstdc++ changes the return types (correcting the bug) then it will be an ABI breakage. If LWG considers and agrees on the enhancement, libstdc++ will have to change again the return types. At the end of the day we would have two ABI breakages with zero net benefit for existing libstdc++ users. -- Gaby -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25304
