Replacing the __builtin_choose_expr() with ?: works of course. What
will be the runtime effects?
I tried replacing
__builtin_choose_expr(__builtin_constant_p(x) &&
__builtin_constant_p(y),
with
__builtin_choose_expr(__builtin_constant_p(x + y),
but no success.
I'm not sure what else to try to trick gcc into working.
