The following reply was made to PR c++/6664; it has been noted by GNATS.

 The example was:
 
 #include <cmath>
 
 namespace log
 {
 	static const int a_var = 0;
 }
 
 int main()
 {}
 
 Fails to compile, due to a conflict between the log function and 
 namespace log.
 
 So the real problem here, is the manner in which the standard library
 imports functions into namespace std with a using directive.
 
 The standard C++ header <cmath> should not specify functions at the
 global scope, that interfere with namespace definitions like the one
 above.
 
 Can we re-open this defect report as a standard library bug?
