& operator (ignoring any overloaded operator& for the type). The purpose of
this builtin is for use in std::addressof, to allow it to be made constexpr;
the existing implementation technique (reinterpret_cast to some reference type,
take address, reinterpert_cast back) does not permit this because
reinterpret_cast between reference types is not permitted in a constant
expression in C++11 onwards.

+``__builtin_addressof``
+-----------------------
+
+``__builtin_addressof`` performs the functionality of the built-in ``&``
+operator, ignoring any ``operator&`` overload.  This is useful in constant
+expressions in C++11, where there is no other way to take the address of an
+object that overloads ``operator&``.
+
+**Example of use**:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  template<typename T> constexpr T *addressof(T &value) {
+    return __builtin_addressof(value);
