Additional notes (September, 2024)
Paper P3144R2 (Deleting a Pointer to an Incomplete Type Should be Ill-formed), approved in June, 2024 made the deletion of pointer-to-incomplete class types ill-formed, thus the situation cannot appear anymore.
[Resolved by paper P3144R2, approved at the June, 2024 meeting.]
Subclause 7.6.2.9 [expr.delete] paragraph 6 specifies:
... The destructor shall be accessible from the point where the delete-expression appears. ...
This check cannot be performed in case the operand of the delete-expression is a pointer to incomplete type.
Possible resolution:
Change in 7.6.2.9 [expr.delete] paragraph 6 as follows:
...TheUnless the object being deleted has incomplete class type, the destructor shall be accessible from the point where the delete-expression appears. ...
