// Demonstration of Undefined Behavior in handling of shared_ptr holder,
// specifically:
// https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/blob/30eb39ed79d1e2eeff15219ac00773034300a5e6/include/pybind11/cast.h#L235
//     `return reinterpret_cast<H &>(vh[1]);`
// indirectly casts a `shared_ptr<drvd>` reference to a `shared_ptr<base>`.
// `test_smart_ptr_private_first_base.py` fails with an AssertionError and
// a subsequent Segmentation Fault (Linux, clang++ -std=c++17).
