Hi,

1)
Am I just having a thinko, but when would a type_info of a reference
ever be generated? (So why __ref_type_info?)

typeid(T) will strip the reference [expr.typeid]/4
a thrown type will never be a reference, [except.throw]/3
a catch type ignores a reference [expr.handle]/3
an exception specification can contain a reference, but behaves the same
as a catch would. [except.spec]

2)
Is __ptr_to_member_type_info for just member data, or both member data
and member functions. The standard uses `pointer to member' to mean
`pointer to member data', but given the inconsistency which as popped
up with polymorphic, I'm not sure. It's also named inconsistently to
__pointer_type_info, and might be considered a subclass of that :-)
