Comment:

 This is not a bug in endian_in_union_test.cpp.

 This is a error caused by a bug in an older version of the compiler. It
 confused user-defined assignment with user-defined copy assignment, which
 is what is actually prohibited. This was a bug in some older versions of
 GCC that has since been fixed.

 The test passes for modern gcc, clang, and msvc compilers in -std=c++03
 mode.
