+<b>Addresses US 65-116</b>
+<p>
+There are forward declarations of entities from <tt>&lt;spanstream&gt;</tt> and
+<tt>&lt;syncstream&gt;</tt> in <tt>&lt;iosfwd&gt;</tt> so their feature macros
+should be added to that header too. Proposed change: Add <tt>&lt;iosfwd&gt;</tt>
+to the "also in" entries for `__cpp_lib_char8_t`, `__cpp_lib_spanstream`, and
+`__cpp_lib_syncbuf`.
+</p>

+<resolution>
+<p>
+This wording is relative to <paper num="N5014"/>.
