#12733: construct no longer supports automatic conversion from char* to std::string
----------------------------------------+------------------------
 Reporter:  Braden McDaniel <braden@…>  |      Owner:  theller
     Type:  Bugs                        |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined            |  Component:  phoenix
  Version:  Boost 1.63.0                |   Severity:  Regression
 Keywords:                              |
----------------------------------------+------------------------
 Given:
 {{{#!c++
 foo {
   explicit foo(const std::string &);
 };
 }}}
 ...this use of `boost::phoenix::construct` now fails in Boost 1.63.0
 (using Apple Clang 8.0):
 {{{#!c++
 boost::phoenix::construct<foo>("str");
 }}}
 The issue can be worked around by explicitly constructing a `std::string`:
 {{{#!c++
 boost::phoenix::construct<foo>(std::string{"str"});
 }}}
 ...however, the automatic conversion from `char*` worked in Boost 1.62.0.
