The problem is that this check produces a hard error (rather than substitution
failure) for declval<std::ostream&>() << declval<const N::A&>().

The relevant operator is not found by ADL, because it's not in the associated
namespaces of std::ostream or N::A (which is IMHO a design error in the code,
but nevermind). So the void_t expression should get a substitution error.

I think the problem is that PR 51577 causes GCC to look in the global scope and
so incorrectly find the declaration of:

std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& s, const N::A&) 

which means that the __is_insertable check ... goes wrong somehow? I think it
makes the void_t expression ambiguous because of the global operator<< overload
which is not meant to be found.

The reduced example above can be reduced further:

namespace std
{

struct ostream { };

template<typename T> T&& declval();

template<typename...> using void_t = void;

struct false_type { static constexpr bool value = false; };
struct true_type { static constexpr bool value = true; };

  template<typename _Ostream, typename _Tp, typename = void>
    struct __is_insertable : false_type {};

  template<typename _Ostream, typename _Tp>
    struct __is_insertable<_Ostream, _Tp,
                           void_t<decltype(declval<_Ostream&>()
                                             << declval<const _Tp&>())>>
    : true_type {};

}

struct CustomStream : std::ostream {};

namespace N {
    class A{};
}

std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& s, const N::A&) 
{
    return s;
}

int main() 
{
  static_assert( ! std::__is_insertable<std::ostream, N::A>::value, "" );
}

This avoids the hard error in __is_insertable, but GCC fails the static_assert
(where as Clang passes it) which is PR 51577.
