<pre>The following piece of code (which is stupid, of course), produces an
unexpected error message about "void" instead of "std::string".
$ cat foo.cc
#include <string>
char c = char{std::string("foo")};
$ clang++-mp-3.5 --version
clang version 3.5.0 (branches/release_35 216817)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0
Thread model: posix
$ clang++-mp-3.5 -c foo.cc -std=c++11
foo.cc:3:10: error: no viable conversion from 'void' to 'char'
char c = char{std::string("foo")};
^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
Or more generally:
$ cat foo.cc
struct foo{};
int c = int{foo{}};
$ clang++-mp-3.5 -c foo.cc -std=c++11
foo.cc:2:9: error: no viable conversion from 'void' to 'int'
int c = int{foo{}};
^ ~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
$ g++-mp-4.9 -std=c++11 -c foo.cc
foo.cc:2:18: error: cannot convert 'foo' to 'int' in initialization
int c = int{foo{}};
^</pre>
