为什么在使用 std::inplace_merge 时，英特尔的 C++ 2022 编译器出现“错误：对‘align_val_t’的引用不明确”？

Question

When I try to compile this with the Intel C++ Compiler 2022 toolset for Visual Studio 2022:

#include <algorithm>

int main()
{
    int x = 0;
    std::inplace_merge(&x, &x, &x);
}

I get:

VC\Tools\MSVC\14.34.31933\include\xmemory(1429,48): error : reference to 'align_val_t' is ambiguous
                _Pbuf = ::operator new (_Size, align_val_t{alignof(_Ty)}, nothrow);
                                               ^

               ^
note: candidate found by name lookup is 'std::align_val_t'

I tried digging through the STL sources, but I can't find where the ambiguity is.

Why does this error occur? And how do I get around it?

Answering my own question, but it seems to be a bug with precompiled headers . This occurs even if the precompiled header files are empty.

Avoiding precompiled headers seems to avoid the issue.

If anyone has a better workaround or more details, please do post it.
