            Bug ID: 38145
           Summary: Implicit conversion of nullptr to bool
           Product: clang
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: C++
          Assignee: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org

DR 1423 has now reached ready status, 

http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/cwg_active.html#1423

so this seems like a good reason to consider a compiler change to evaluate
potential code breakages.

bool b1 = nullptr; // Is well-formed today, needs to be ill-formed

I tried clang++ and g++. clang++ accepts the above code, but g++ rejects it:

error:converting to ‘bool’ from ‘std::nullptr_t’ requires direct-initialization
[-fpermissive]
     bool b1 = nullptr; // Is well-formed today, needs to be ill-formed
               ^~~~~~~
