--- Comment #2 from Phil Miller <unmobile at gmail dot com> ---
I just went to look at this in more detail, and I'm not sure how to interpret
what I've found. If the DR in question in 225
(http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/cwg_closed.html#225), following
from 197, that seems to suggest that the other compilers *shouldn't* be be
treating int as if it were associated with the global namespace, since the
standards committee said the lack of associated namespace is Not A Defect. Does
the committee need another nudge on this point, as practice has shifted?

As a user, I'd much prefer if fundamental types were not special-cased in this
setting, with the standard blessing what Clang, IBM, Intel, and PGI have done,
and GCC, Microsoft, and Cray adopting that approach.
