Reproduced here:

  const regex r(R"(meow(\d+)\.txt)");
  smatch m;
  if (regex_match(dir_iter->path().filename().string(), m, r)) {
      DoSomethingWith(m[1]);
  }

- What's wrong with this code?

Seems like this was fixed in C++14 by adding a std::string&& overload.

The underlying problem is still there, fixing a few of the worst cases in the standard library is helpful but only up to a point. (E.g. anyone with a custom function that does something in a similar vein needs to remember to do the same.)
