Discussion:

17.3.2 [version.syn] says that __cpp_lib_constexpr_algorithms is only defined in <version> and <algorithm>, but the macro applies to std::exchange() in <utility> as well (via P0202R3), so it should also be available from <utility>.

[2022-10-12; Reflector poll]

Set status to Tentatively Ready after eight votes in favour during reflector poll.

[2022-11-12 Approved at November 2022 meeting in Kona. Status changed: Voting → WP.]

Proposed resolution:

This wording is relative to N4917.

1. Modify 17.3.2 [version.syn] as indicated (It is suggested to retroactively apply to C++20):

   […]
   #define __cpp_lib_concepts             202207L // also in <concepts>, <compare>
   #define __cpp_lib_constexpr_algorithms 201806L // also in <algorithm>, <utility>
   #define __cpp_lib_constexpr_bitset     202202L // also in <bitset>
   […]
