Proposed resolution:

Strike 20.3.5.4 and the matching declarations in 20.3 header synopsis.

[ Resolved in Rapperswil by a motion to directly apply the words from the ballot comment in N3102. ]

Addresses GB-85

While std::pair may happen to hold a pair of iterators forming a valid range, this is more likely a coincidence than a feature guaranteed by the semantics of the pair template. A distinct range-type should be supplied to enable the new for-loop syntax rather than overloading an existing type with a different semantic.

If a replacement facility is required for C++0x, consider n2995.
