------- Comment #1 from Raimund dot Merkert at baesystems dot com 2007-07-24 16:40 ------- If I replace *i with ++i, I get basically the same result. It has struck me as weird that this would be the "preferred way" according to Scott Myers, but looking at the implementation bits/stl_iterator.h, this code should definitely not work.
So, perhaps it is not a bug after all? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32883
