Because we have a standard.  If you want to change the standard, pleae
do so.  GCC bugzilla is the erong place.  You're not helping your
cause here.

That is orthogonal to GCC bugs.

Please your words and don't credit me for things I did not say.

A bug in *what*?  That seems to the issue you seem incapable to understand.

Impatience will not help you.

Do consider that committee members read comp.std.c++.  Since you're
not the center of the universe, do allow time and credit people for
reading what you wrote.

That is more a statement of fact that "reproaching".

which tone?  You jumped in this discussion with the firm belief that
it is a GCC bug, with NO understanding of the rules that govern the
behaviour.  And only reluctantly admitted an explanation of the behaviour.
If you have a problem with GCC, I'm very happy to help you and I'll
encourage other people to help you.  If you want to be a pain in the
ass treating people here as obscure ignorants, then you won't find my
support.  That is very simple. 

| I might have been much more considerate and constructive.  

And you do believe that being condenscending and non-constructive
would help your cause?  That would be very naive.

| I just cannot understand why you have never shown any patience

In effect, I've shown more patience and consideration than needed.
I've always pointed you to the right place to discussion this issue,
giving you hints to material your should digest before claiming this
being a GCC bug.  You've choosen not to consider them.  I can't take blame
for your deliberate choice to ignore advices.
