Here, `bar`, takes a (pointer to a) class instance as

Does the language spec say anything about the size of class
references?
Yes, is is defined as `ptrsize` and must have the exact same
size as a pointer to a struct and - more importantly - a
pointer to a stack frame[1].
Huh? You are talking about lambdas?
Didnt find anything on class references in that Intel specific
ABI, which appears to be optional anyway.
Yes, see above link. Unless you make *all* stack frame pointers
smart pointers (which makes no sense whatsoever), class
instances cannot be smart pointers in the language as it is
specified right now.
I don't understand. Why are frame pointers relevant for class
references?
Sure, and the definition requires it.
Why?
