[Moved to DR at the November, 2014 meeting.]
Proposed resolution (October, 2014):
Add the following as the last paragraph of 11.4.8.3 [class.conv.fct]:
A conversion function template shall not have a deduced return type (9.2.9.7 [dcl.spec.auto]).
The Standard currently appears to allow something like
struct S {
template<class T> operator auto() { return 42; }
};
This is of very limited utility and presents difficulties for some implementations. It might be good to prohibit such constructs.
