Right. The standard's rules are often incoherent or unimplementable without the 
fixes in DRs, so it's not meaningful to implement ISO C++ as standardized. In 
order to avoid making judgement calls ourselves, we (and many other compiler 
vendors) enable *all* relevant DR fixes for each language mode.

It's ISO C++11, plus all relevant defect reports. (Incidentally, this is why 
C++98 and C++03 modes are identical across typical compilers -- the difference 
is only DRs.)

No. (As the C++ standard editor, I've been considering maintaining such an 
alternative standard, but it's a large amount of work, and it would give the 
false impression that the document containing the standard + DRs is in some way 
an official product of the ISO C++ committee.)

clang.llvm.org/cxx_dr_status.html is has a complete list of core issues, along 
with an incomplete list of Clang's implementation status for them. If you want 
to get involved with that, there are tests in clang's test/CXX/drs/... for each 
such issue, containing special comments describing our implementation status 
(the HTML status page is then generated by scraping those comments); tests for 
more DRs would be appreciated!
