Proposed resolution (approved by CWG 2022-09-23):

Change in Clause Annex B [implimits] bullet 2.3 as follows:

Pointer (9.3.4.2 [dcl.ptr]), pointer-to-member (9.3.4.4 [dcl.mptr]), array (9.3.4.5 [dcl.array]), and function (9.3.4.6 [dcl.fct]) declarators (in any combination) modifying a ~~class, arithmetic, or incomplete~~ type in a declaration [256].

[Accepted as a DR at the November, 2022 meeting.]

Clause Annex B [implimits] bullet 2.3 specifies:

Pointer (9.3.4.2 [dcl.ptr]), array (9.3.4.5 [dcl.array]), and function (9.3.4.6 [dcl.fct]) declarators (in any combination) modifying a class, arithmetic, or incomplete type in a declaration [256].

This omits function types as the to-be-modified type, and ignores pointer-to-member declarators.
