Discussion:
Member istreambuf_iterator<>::equal is not declared"const", yet [istreambuf.iterator::op==] says that operator==,which is const, calls it. This is contradictory.
Proposed resolution:
In 24.6.4[istreambuf.iterator] and also in [istreambuf.iterator::equal],replace:
bool equal(istreambuf_iterator& b);
with:
bool equal(const istreambuf_iterator& b) const;
