------- Comment #21 from fw at gcc dot gnu dot org 2010-05-23 11:04 ------- It turns out that the C++ committee did address this in C++0X, after rejected a previous DR. See section 18.6.2.2 in N3090. This seems to require an ABI change because the size calculation can no longer happen at the call site without much code bloat. See <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2010-05/msg00437.html>.
