VC++ and CodeWarrior have different kinds of problems with it from Comeau/strict. I am hoping that they are wrong, but I am not enough of a core language jock to make a determination on which of these compilers is correct (if any).
VC 7.1 fails to compile test 15:
std::cout << " ------ test 15, pass const lvalue by-value ------- " << std::endl; sink(z7);
