I spent some time looking for it, but I couldn't find it.

In particular, my email included links to the C++ standards
group discussion on the topic of complex arithmetic and a
pointer to the reference implementation.  I don't recall
the details, but I do remember being surprised by the
implementation.

Can anyone point us to a copy of the C++ standards, since
I can't find that link again either.

Thanks,
