The LRM lists the operators that can be overloaded, and it does not include assignment. There is other text that indicates that this was not an oversight. The LRM only allows overloading of operators when applied to data types that would otherwise be illegal for them. Assignment is legal for all data types. The LRM also explicitly talks about arithmetic operators, which does not include assignment. So it seems quite clear that an assignment operator cannot be overloaded.
