Because I'm trying to get the exception specification of a sibling member 
function, in this same class. It looks to be impossible to do.

Ah, you're confusing the two examples. I want to get the noexcept status of a 
sibling function, available in this same class. In the example I came up with, 
it's just one class, no base class to rely on. That's showing what I consider 
to be a shortcoming in either the spec or in GCC's implementation.

In the real-world case, the function was actually in the base class, so I 
could have fixed it by using the dummy() hack. I chose instead to use a #define.
