        <pre>basic_string::assign, unlike the containers', needs to tolerate the case where
the iterators refers into the string. See <a href="https://wg21.link/string.assign#15">https://wg21.link/string.assign#15</a>,
which depicts a temporary string being constructed before any mutation takes
place.

Test case:

    std::string s = "abcde";
    s.assign(s.rbegin(), s.rend());
    assert(s == "edcba");

I suspect, but have not checked, that other member functions taking iterator
pairs may have similar issues.</pre>
