Do you know if this a bug in VC++, or if that is supposed to be
valid?
It's valid, the reference should bind directly to global_i.
In the code he provided, the assertion failure means that the address of the reference ii != the address of global_i. That's surprising.
Maybe I misunderstood the exact question. Obviously it's surprising,
because it's wrong, like I said "the reference should bind directly to
global_i" i.e. it should not bind to a temporary.

What I meant (but might have failed to say) is that the program is
valid, and the assertion should not fail.

I didn't mean VC++'s behaviour is valid.
