This actually causes a regression: FAIL: 20_util/variant/87619.cc -std=gnu++20 (test for excess errors) FAIL: 20_util/variant/87619.cc -std=gnu++23 (test for excess errors) FAIL: 20_util/variant/87619.cc -std=gnu++26 (test for excess errors) It's OK for C++17 because the changed code is only used for C++20 and later. That test instantiates a very large variant to check that we don't hit our template instantiation depth limit. Using the variable template (which uses the class template) instead of the built-in causes it to fail now. So optimizing the variable template is now a priority.
