   Yes, this is from the C++11 standard. But in C++03 the content is   
   essentially the same for this particular scenario, see ISO/IEC   
   14882:2003(E), 5.2.2 [expr.call] p4:   
      
   "When a function is called, each parameter (8.3.5) shall be initialized   
   (8.5, 12.8, 12.1) with its corresponding argument. If the function is a   
   nonstatic member function, the “this” parameter of the function (9.3.2)   
   shall be initialized with a pointer to the object of the call, converted   
   as if by an explicit type conversion (5.4)."
