            Bug ID: 58341
           Summary: Doc conflicts with standard on forbidden range of
                    `result` in copy_backward()
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.8.1
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: libstdc++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: kristian.spangsege at gmail dot com

The documentation of copy_backward() in <bits/stl_algobase.h> conflicts with
the C++ standard on the forbidden range of `result`.

The documentation states that `result` must not be within the range [`first`,
`last`). The standard instead requires that `result` is not within the range
(`first`, `last`].

It is probably just a typo.

See C++11 (2011-09-01) section 25.3.1/13.
