I could've sworn that was called Techical *Corrigendum* 1 ... Am I
    wrong?

You are correct. I mis-spoke. The correction is TC1, folded into the
2003 version of the standard.

Strange.. I found no mention about this on
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/  and this
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2004/n1638.pdf  outdates
the one available on the ISO site.

Could someone comment on that?

The C++ Committee worked on addressing errors in the original 1998 C++
standard (see this newsgroup's FAQ list about Defect Reports), and is
now working on a future C++ standard.

A Technical Report (TR1) was released containing fixes to Defect
Reports. The TR was folded into a new version of the C++ standard,
dated 2003. That is now the official standard (ISO/IEC 14882:2003). It
is available for purchase from ISO (at the above addres), from
www.ansi.org, and from www.incits.org.

In the process of creating a standard (or TR), the committee creates
many drafts, carefully labeled as drafts. The n1638.pdf paper is one
example.

These drafts have no official weight. They are known to contain errors
and inconsistencies, and to be incomplete. In fact these drafts say so
on the first page!
