The original test case

I've got this problem on Alpine Linux originally.

...
<span class="quote">>>></span >

test_alpine1.cpp:
<<<
#include <functional>

using function = std::function<void()>;

struct S
{
    S(std::reference_wrapper<function>)
    {
    }

    void operator()() const
    {
    }
};

auto test()
{
    function f;
    return S(std::ref(f));
}
<span class="quote">>>></span >

The interesting thing here is that if I remove S::operator(), the compilation
succeeds.

P.S. I've tried to minimize it further by replacing std::function with a
trivial struct and in the resulting code the operator() is no longer needed to
reproduce the error (see test_alpine2.cpp).

P.S.2 I've also tried to get rid of things specific to the stdlib used on
Alpine and got test_anywhere.cpp, which fails to compile with the same error on
other systems as well. Namely, I've tried it on LinuxMint 17.3 where I have
more versions of Clang installed and it fails virtually for all of them (4.x -
9.x).

P.S.3 GCC is able to compile all of the files.</pre>
