3652. Can we relax the preconditions oflongjmp?

Discussion:
IMO the UB in 17.14.3 [csetjmp.syn]/2 is because of the design that "every destructor call for an object shall be in effect when the lifetime of that object ends". A similar requirement is in 6.8.4 [basic.life]/5, but it's more relaxed than the requirement for setjmp/longjmp. It seems better to harmonize the requirements in 6.8.4 [basic.life]/5 and 17.14.3 [csetjmp.syn]/2, which allows longjmp to skip non-trivial but no-op destructor calls. Given that Microsoft UCRT's longjmp can sometimes (but not always) call destructors, IMO we should say that it's unspecified whether longjmp calls destructor for any object whose lifetime ends.

Proposed resolution:
This wording is relative to N4901.
Modify 17.14.3 [csetjmp.syn] as indicated:
-2- The function signature
longjmp(jmp_buf jbuf, int val)has more restricted behavior in this document. Asetjmp/longjmpcall pair has undefined behavior i If replacing thesetjmpandlongjmpin asetjmp/longjmpcall pair bycatchandthrowwould invoke any non-trivial destructors for any objects with automatic storage duration , it is unspecified whether the destructor is invoked for each such object. The behavior is undefined if the program depends on the side effects produced by any such unspecified destructor calls. A call tosetjmporlongjmphas undefined behavior if invoked in a suspension context of a coroutine (7.6.2.4 [expr.await]).
