Committed with the idiomatic approach.

I'll work on this additional check later.

Small update for an obvious compilation issue and to review new test

I also forgot to ask if there is more chance for the instantiation to be
elided when it is implemented like in the _Safe_local_iterator:
return { __cur, this->_M_sequence };
No, that doesn't make any difference.

than in the _Safe_iterator:
return _Safe_iterator(__cur, this->_M_sequence);

In the case where the user code do not use it ?

Fully tested now, ok to commit ?

Thanks for fixing this.

Here is the extension of the fix to all post-increment/decrement
operators we have on _GLIBCXX_DEBUG iterator.
Thanks, I completely forgot we have other partial specializations, I
just fixed the one that showed a deadlock in the user's example!

I prefer to restore somehow previous implementation to continue to
have _GLIBCXX_DEBUG post operators implemented in terms of normal post
operators.
Why?

Implementing post-increment as:

      auto tmp = *this;
      ++*this;
      return tmp;

is the idiomatic way to write it, and it works fine in this case. I
don't think it performs any more work than your version, does it?
Why not use the idiomatic form?

Is it just so that post-inc of a debug iterator uses post-inc of the
underlying iterator? Why does that matter?

A little yes, but that's a minor reason that is just making me happy.

Main reason is that this form could produce a __msg_init_copy_singular
before the __msg_bad_inc.
Ah yes, I see. That's a shame. I find the idiomatic form much simpler
to read, and it will generate better code (because it just reuses
existing functions, instead of adding new ones).

We could do this though, right?

     _GLIBCXX_DEBUG_VERIFY(this->_M_incrementable(),
                   _M_message(__msg_bad_inc)
                   ._M_iterator(*this, "this"));
     _Safe_iterator __tmp = *this;
     ++*this;
     return __tmp;

That does the VERIFY check twice though.

And moreover I plan to propose a patch later to skip any check in the
call to _Safe_iterator(__cur, _M_sequence) as we already know that __cur
is ok here like anywhere else in the lib.

There will still be one in the constructor normally elided unless
--no-elide-constructors but there is not much I can do about it.
Don't worry about it. Nobody should ever use -fno-elide-constructors
in any real cases (except maybe debugging some very strange corner
cases, and in that case the extra safe iterator checks are not going
to be their biggest problem).

The patch is OK for trunk then.
