Is this expected to not compile with -fno-implicit-templates?

As I stated in the bug report, the code is invalid, but used to work
due to an undocumented "accidental" feature of libstdc++.so which
happens to provide instantiations of the required operator+().
If you use -fno-implicit-templates then it is your responsibility to
instantiate all the templates you use. The program uses operator+()
without instantiating it, so the program is wrong. (It also uses a
number of other templates without instantiating them, which is also
wrong).
I will open a gcc bug report. It must be a bug, because if using
a temporary to convert "1" or "0" to a std::string it works. Or,
explicit converting, e.g.:
- t = "1" + t;
+ t = std::string("1") + t;
This just happens to work because it uses a different overload of
operator+ that is defined inline, so the compiler inlines the code and
doesn't require an instantiation.
Using -fno-implicit-templates in the package is probably a bug IMHO.
The justification in the package's readme is weak.
However, in order not to break such buggy programs which worked (by
accident) previously I have added the relevant instantiations to
libstdc++.
