Discussion:

The paragraph 4 refers to the function `exception()` which is not defined. Probably, the referred function is `basic_ios<>::exceptions()`.

Proposed resolution:

In 29.7.4.2 [istream], 29.7.4.4 [istream.unformatted], paragraph 1, 29.7.5.2 [ostream], paragraph 3, and 29.7.5.3.1 [ostream.formatted.reqmts], paragraph 1, change "`exception()" to "exceptions()"`.

[Note to Editor: "exceptions" with an "s" is the correct spelling.]
