How so?  Itanium’s v-tables are still logically broken up into separate
components, such that an access through any one v-table pointer only
ever accesses a particular component.  You could very easily change
Itanium to allocate all the v-tables in separate symbols without any need
to change the code for virtual calls.  It’s just that Itanium is trying to
optimize the number of separate symbols required.

Sure, but — oh, I see, we just need to return the offset from the complete
object here, and if we need a thunk to adjust to that, then the calling logic
will handle that.

Yeah, C++03 has some pointless restrictions about template arguments.

Also, we’ve found that MSVC tends to miscompile local classes, so pulling
things out is for the best.
