starts_on: a child reading get_stop_token from the environment fails to compile with clang (gcc accepts it)

Reproduce the example with clang++ and g++ using the reported C++26 commands, then inspect the starts_on, read_env, spawn, and counting_scope paths, beginning with the functional.hpp instantiation shown in the diagnostic. Compare the environment and stop-token types seen by the child across the listed variants. Done means the original program compiles with clang without breaking the variants that already compile.

I spawn a child into a counting_scope. The child reads the stop token out of the
environment and passes it to a coroutine that takes stdexec::inplace_stop_token. The
scope supplies a real inplace_stop_token, and the program runs as expected when it
compiles.

Wrapping that child in starts_on makes clang reject the program. gcc accepts the same
code.

#include <utility>

#include <stdexec/execution.hpp>

namespace ex = stdexec;

// In real code this is a member function defined in a .cpp, so its parameter
// type is fixed.
auto work(ex::inplace_stop_token token) -> ex::task<void> {
  (void)token;
  co_return;
}

int main() {
  ex::run_loop loop;
  ex::counting_scope scope;

  auto child = ex::let_value(ex::read_env(ex::get_stop_token),
                             [](auto token) -> ex::task<void> {
                               co_await work(token);
                             });

  ex::spawn(ex::starts_on(loop.get_scheduler(), std::move(child)) |
                ex::upon_error([](auto&&) noexcept {}),
            scope.get_token());
  ex::sync_wait(scope.join());
}

clang++ -std=c++26 -Iinclude -fsyntax-only repro.cpp

fails with:

The same command with g++ -std=c++26 compiles.

Variants, each changing one thing in the program above:

Is the child expected to be instantiated with an environment that has no stop token here,
or am I holding starts_on wrong?

Versions:

• stdexec main @ f91f6363 (2026-08-22)
• g++ 15.2.0, clang 21.1.8, both -std=c++26
• clang 22.1.2 rejects the program the same way
