+- LLVM 18.1.8 Fixed an issue that caused ``std::string`` to pass an incorrect size to ``allocator_traits::deallocate``

+    off by default in Clang 18) will not be affected. This is expected to be the vast majority of users.
+  - Users who don't use a custom allocator in ``std::string`` but are enabling sized deallocation (e.g. with
+    ``-fsized-deallocation``) will notice that ``operator delete(void*, size_t)`` is now being passed the correct
+    size. This likely has no impact if they were not customizing ``operator delete``.
+  - Users who use a custom allocator in ``std::string`` will notice that they now get passed the correct allocation
+    size upon deallocation.
