The expressions G::min() and G::max() in Table 116 in [rand.req.urng] are specified as having "compile-time" complexity.

It is not clear what, exactly, this requirement implies. If a URNG has a method: 

static int min();

then is the method required to have a constexpr qualifier? I believe the standard would benefit from clarification of this point.
