valarray operator requirements not consistent with standard
-----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: STDCXX-622
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-622
             Project: C++ Standard Library
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: 26. Numerics
    Affects Versions: 4.2
            Reporter: Travis Vitek
            Assignee: Travis Vitek
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 4.2.1


26.3.2.6 p1 says

Each of these operators may only be instantiated for a type T to which the 
indicated operator can be
applied. Each of these operators performs the indicated operation on each of 
its elements and the corresponding
element of the argument array. [for operators *=, /=, %=, +=, -=, ^=, &=, |=, 
<<= and >>=]

The current implementation of the valarray member operators violate these 
requirements. Internally they use the transform algorithm with one of the 
function adapters [i.e. multiplies, divides]. So valarray<T>::operator+=() will 
use T::operator+() and T::operator=() when it should be using T::operator+=(). 
As a direct result of this, the 26.valarray.cassign test fails to compile on 
all platforms.
