Oh sorry, that was just an automated email for the comment I posted to the bugzilla PR, which gets sent to everyone on the CC list of the PR.

And CWG2369 says we now first check constraints before non-dependent conversions, but we're in the middle of checking the constraints on this overload, so we enter a constraint loop. > Maybe I'm missing something here?
