--- Comment #1 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Can we have any state passed around?
_M_extract_via_format can have some extra reference argument to some state like
glibc has passed through it, but wouldn't that work only for the recursive
calls?
E.g. if one uses get with "%r" format or some other one that recurses and
contains everything to recompute the fields, we could recompute them.
But if get itself contains a format string, then each format specifier in it
seems to be required to be processed separately by
https://eel.is/c++draft/locale.time.get#members-8.4
- a virtual method which has standard mandated arguments is called for each
format specifier, so it is unclear how to carry some state around the parsing
of the whole format string.
