As far as I can tell clang is correct here for C++1y and is probably correct for C++11 although that may depend on whether you consider N3323: "A Proposal to Tweak Certain C++ Contextual Conversions" to be a fix for C++11 or part of C++1y. N3323 is incorporated in N3485 which I consider to be C++11 with fixes but perhaps that is an incorrect interpretation. Based on this assumption then if we look at section 6.4.2 it says: The condition shall be of integral type, enumeration type, or class type. If of class type, the condition is contextually implicitly converted (Clause 4) to an integral or enumeration type. and this would force us to use section 4 paragraph 5 which does not allow or overload resolution making int conversion the only one available for this context. If N3323 is not part of C++11 then it seems unclear to me whether the template conversion function should be considered or not.
