Comment(by dave):

 I think I understand the bug now (though the text should still be
 improved) and
 I have a suggestion to make: on those compilers where the bug exists, make
 the
 constructor in question explicit so that you can't mistakenly end up with
 a
 dangling reference.  I did that by brute force in my local copy by
 specializing
 optional<V const&> and adding "explicit" to the ctor.
