[ Note: forwarded to C++ committee. -sdc ]

The standard uses 'most derived object' in some places (for example,
1.3.3 [defns.dynamic.type], 5.3.5 [expr.delete]) to refer to objects of
both class and non-class type. However, 1.8 [intro.object] only formally
defines it for objects of class type.

Possible fix:

Change the wording in 1.8 [intro.object] paragraph 4.

"an object of a most derived class type is called a most derived object"

to

"an object of a most derived class type, or of non-class type, is called
a most derived object"
