That would make sense if NOTHING worked that was in a namespace.
But in many cases it does.  I trust you if think this is related
to namespaces being unsupported, but never say 'of course'.

Because the whole standard resides in std::, this must be the
reason that gdb is virtually unusable with C++ :/

(gdb) p result
$2 = {static npos = Cannot access memory at address 0x8416bc4

(gdb) p buf
$1 = {<basic_iostream<char,std::char_traits<char> >> = {<basic_istream<char,std::char_traits<char> >> =
{<basic_ios<char,std::char_traits<char> >> = {<ios_base> = {static boolalpha = Cannot access memory at address 0x0

But if you ask me, it is more related to static members than
to namespaces...
