Yes, it is. But there are two reasons for this to be implemented:
1. Clang aims to be a GCC drop-in replacement and mimics GCC. If it does so, I
would expect it to implement all GCC's extensions, at least this one, which is
probably not so complex.
2. This is a very important feature, which is impossible to replace with any
other legal construct of the language. This is a huge oversight by the C++
standard committee that this feature is not available in the language. The PMF
(pointer to member function) is a much more complicated and not nearly as
useful construct than a pointer to bound member function, yet the former is
present in the language, and the latter still isn't.
