[ The resolution assumes that addressof is reintroduced as described in n2946 ]

In [specialized.algorithms] change as described: 

template <class T> T* addressof(T& r);

Returns: The actual address of the object or function referenced by r, even in the presence of an overloaded operator&.

[ 2009-07 Frankfurt ]

Moved from Tentatively Ready to Open only because the wording needs to be tweaked for concepts removal.

[ Batavia (2009-05): ]

We agree.

Move to Tentatively Ready.

The same fix (reference 987) may be applied to addressof, which is also constrained to ObjectType. (That was why boost::ref didn't work with functions - it tried to apply boost::addressof and the reinterpret_cast<char&> implementation of addressof failed.)
