--- Comment #2 from Eelis <gcc-bugzilla at contacts dot eelis.net> ---
Another manifestation of this is that 

  sizeof(pair<pair<char,char>,pair<char,char>>) == 4

while

  sizeof(tuple<tuple<char,char>,tuple<char,char>>) == 5 (!!).

I think that at the moment, GCC users are best advised to avoid using stdlib
tuples if efficiency is a concern.
