The requirement in 6.3 [basic.def.odr] paragraph 4 that a type T must be complete if an expression is implicitly converted to a pointer to T or reference to T inadvertently applies to user-defined conversions, although it was intended only to refer to built-in conversions.
Proposed resolution (August, 2011):
Change the indicated bullet of 6.3 [basic.def.odr] paragraph 4 as follows:
an expression that is not a null pointer constant, and has
type other than cv void*, is converted to
the type pointer to T or reference to T using
an implicit a standard conversion (
7.3 [conv]), a dynamic_cast (7.6.1.7 [expr.dynamic.cast]) or a static_cast (7.6.1.9 [expr.static.cast]),
or
