[Accepted as a DR at the February, 2020 (Prague) meeting.]
According to 9.2.9.7 [dcl.spec.auto] paragraph 3,
If the auto type-specifier appears as one of the decl-specifiers in the decl-specifier-seq of a parameter-declaration of a lambda-expression, the lambda is a generic lambda (7.5.5 [expr.prim.lambda]).
and 7.5.5 [expr.prim.lambda] paragraph 5 says,
For a generic lambda, the closure type has a public inline function call operator member template (13.7.3 [temp.mem]) whose template-parameter-list consists of one invented type template-parameter for each occurrence of auto in the lambda's parameter-declaration-clause, in order of appearance.
However, an auto that signals a trailing-return-type should be excluded from these descriptions.
Proposed resolution (February, 2020):
This issue is resolved by the resolution of issue 2447.
