Proposed resolution:

This wording is relative to N5046.

  1. Modify [zombie.names], Table 39 — "Zombie object-like macros" [tab:zombie.names.objmacro] as indicated:

    argument_type
    byte_string
    first_argument_type
    io_state
    op
    open_mode
    preferred
    second_argument_type
    seek_dir
    strict
    wide_string
Date: 2026-06-09.00:00:00

Currently, `byte_string` and `wide_string`, which were member typedef-names of removed `wstring_convert`, are not listed in [zombie.names]. In the same concerns as LWG 3885, perhaps we should also make them zombie names.
