Discussion:

The "overload" for the function `exceptions()` in paragraph 8 gives the impression that there is another function of this function defined in class `ios_base`. However, this is not the case. Thus, it is hard to tell how the semantics (paragraph 9) can be implemented: "Call the corresponding member function specified in clause 29 [input.output]."

Proposed resolution:

In 99 [depr.ios.members] paragraph 8, move the declaration of the function `exceptions()`into class `basic_ios`.
