Proposed resolution:

This wording is relative to N3691.

1. Change the header <map> synopsis, [map.overview] p2 as indicated:

   // 23.4.4.5, map operations:
   iterator find(const key_type& x);
   const_iterator find(const key_type& x) const;
   template <class K> iterator find(const K& x);
   template <class K> const_iterator find(const K& x) const;
   

2. Delete the complete sub-clause [map.ops]:

   23.4.4.5 map operations [map.ops]

   iterator find(const key_type& x);
   const_iterator find(const key_type& x) const;
   iterator lower_bound(const key_type& x);
   const_iterator lower_bound(const key_type& x) const;
   iterator upper_bound(const key_type& x);
   const_iterator upper_bound(const key_type &x) const;
   pair<iterator, iterator>
     equal_range(const key_type &x);
   pair<const_iterator, const_iterator>
     equal_range(const key_type& x) const;
   

   -1- The find, lower_bound, upper_bound and equal_range member functions each have two versions, one const and the other non-const. In each case the behavior of the two functions is identical except that the const version returns a const_iterator and the non-const version an iterator (23.2.4).

3. Delete the complete sub-clause [multimap.ops]:

   23.4.5.4 multimap operations [multimap.ops]

   iterator find(const key_type &x);
   const_iterator find(const key_type& x) const;
   
   iterator lower_bound(const key_type& x);
   const_iterator lower_bound(const key_type& x) const;
   
   pair<iterator, iterator>
     equal_range(const key_type &x);
   pair<const_iterator, const_iterator>
     equal_range(const key_type& x) const;
   

   -1- The find, lower_bound, upper_bound and equal_range member functions each have two versions, one const and one non-const. In each case the behavior of the two versions is identical except that the const version returns a const_iterator and the non-const version an iterator (23.2.4).

Daniel's wording is good, move to Immediate to resolve NB comment.
