std::string name4 = name4;

Shouldn't this line of code generate a compiler error ?
It does not in Visual Studio 2005.

It compiles successfully under the online Comeau compiler, which is
considered very good when it comes to C++ standards.

The people on comp.lang.c++ are kinda calling it undefined

If you are willing, what does "int n = n;" do on the Comeau compiler ?
