This is in a blank solution. VAX seems to identify malformed dereferences, and fails to recognize the iterator dereferences. I have had it correctly identify the iterators in other cases, but not in this test case. I am not using "Get content from default Intellisense." If I switch it to use default Intellisense, (**p). and (**it). incorrectly suggest 'member', but the other malformed expressions correctly offer no suggestion and the well-formed iterator expressions correctly suggest 'member'.
