How can you modify an object without calling member functions?

At 3.10/10, the standard says:

An lvalue for an object is necessary in order to modify the object except that an rvalue of class type can also be used to

    This seems to be accepted:

    struct T {
       int x;
    };
    
    int main() {
       T().x = 3;
    }
    

    I am slightly surprised that this works, because IIRC the LHS of op= must be an lvalue, yet the following implies that even T().x is an rvalue:

    struct T {
       int x;
    };
    
    void f(int& x) {
       x = 3;
    }
    
    int main() {
       f(T().x);
    }
    

    Edit: As of 4.6, GCC does warn about T().x = 3: error: using temporary as lvalue.

    I can't think of any other way to modify a class object other than through data member access or member function calls. So, I'm going to say... you can't.
