Is a data member of a temporary object an xvalue in C++11?

Question

#include <vector>

using namespace std;

struct A
{
    vector<int> coll;
};

void f(const vector<int>&){}
void f(vector<int>&&){}

int main()
{
    f(A().coll); // Is "A().coll" an xvalue? 
}

Does C++11 guarantee f(A().coll) will call void f(vector<int>&&)?

Answer 1

Yes. C++14 standard, §5.2.5/4.2, given E1.E2:

If E2 is a non-static data member and the type of E1 is “cq1 vq1 X”, and the type of E2 is “cq2 vq2 T”, the expression designates the named member of the object designated by the first expression. If E1 is an lvalue, then E1.E2 is an lvalue; otherwise E1.E2 is an xvalue.

Pedantically, originally C++11 classified this as a prvalue, but such classification was meaningless so it was changed. If the change was applied by a defect report, though, then it's retroactive — the published C++11 standard document N3290 is wrong and the C++14 document defines C++11 instead. That's likely to be the case, as otherwise would require compilers to implement a subtle difference in behavior between -std=c++11 and -std=c++14. I'm lazy to search through DRs right now.
