I was hoping I would get a building so I could avoid all of this, created
ticket: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=125394
I need to be careful about ranges with size greater than size_t, but can
workaround that. Will post new patch soon.

What is the use case you are thinking of? Because if you have _Range&
object that you can pass, you could invoke ranges::size(__r) directly.
So unless, I am missing something that sounds like extra indirection,
that could be avoided.
