+// Constructing a resource_ref from a type that:
+// (1) Publicly inherits from cuda::mr::shared_resource<Impl>, AND
+// (2) Has a constructor accepting resource_ref
+// triggered a recursive constraint satisfaction error on GCC 14.3.0 with C++20:
+//
+//   error: satisfaction of atomic constraint '...' depends on itself
+//
+// Root cause: resource_ref previously used __iasync_resource which includes
+// __icopyable.  Checking __icopyable<T> evaluates copyable<T>,
+// which evaluates is_constructible<T, T&>.  When T's constructors include one
+// accepting resource_ref, the compiler considers whether T& converts to
+// resource_ref, re-entering the original __satisfies<T,...> check — a cycle.
+//
+// Fix: resource_ref and synchronous_resource_ref now use __iasync_resource_ref
+// / __iresource_ref respectively, which omit __icopyable.  Reference wrappers
+// don't own the resource and therefore don't need the underlying type to be
+// copyable.
