I understand that you are working on a clean solution which is fine and can be done in 9.0, but:

- this patch is small, almost non-intrusive and can be obsolete in 9.0, i think no one would be sad about that
- we need to fix this issue, lambda traversal is absolutly normal in ASTMatchers. Once you include the STL in your code, you automatically encounter this use case
- we break current code that is in trunk already (for a longer time)
- this patch does not break any other tests so far, so it does not seem to inccur bigger issues, on the other hand redoing AST matching most likely will.

The semantic issues that came up make sense to address (within this or a similar complex patch), but the current change does not seem to change a lot.
Even if it does, introducing false positives/negatives for lambda-cases is still better then leaving the crashing as is.
