Hi
I would say that with "broken inheritance" is meant that due to some changes, a specific class cannot be any more inherited.
This can happen if u would make the constructor private, and provide a static member (or even friend) function used for the creation of the the type instances . The remedy on this is that instances can be only then created on the heap, not the stack.
