glvalue refers

\begin{example}
If a pointer\iref{dcl.ptr} \tcode{p} whose static type is ``pointer to
class \tcode{B}'' is pointing to an object of class \tcode{D}, derived
If a pointer\iref{dcl.ptr} \tcode{p} whose type is ``pointer to
class \tcode{B}'' is pointing to a base class subobject
of class \tcode{B}, whose most derived object is of class \tcode{D}, derived
from \tcode{B}\iref{class.derived}, the dynamic type of the
expression \tcode{*p} is ``\tcode{D}''. References\iref{dcl.ref} are
treated similarly.
