[Moderator's note: this defect report has been forwarded to
 the C++ committee.  -moderator(fjh).]

In Section 21.3 [lib.basic.string] the basic_string member function
declarations use a consistent style except for the following functions:

void push_back(const charT);
basic_string& assign(const basic_string&);
void swap(basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>&);

- push_back, assign, swap: missing argument name
- push_back: use of const with charT (i.e. POD type passed by value not by
reference - should be charT or const charT& )
- swap: redundant use of template parameters in argument
basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>&

Resolution:
In Section 21.3 [lib.basic.string] the the basic_string member function
declarations push_back, assign, swap change to:

void push_back(charT c);
 or
void push_back(const charT& c);


basic_string& assign(const basic_string& str);
void swap(basic_string& str);
