Okay, then we shall leave this as-is now.


================
Comment at: clang/unittests/StaticAnalyzer/RangeSetTest.cpp:81
   const llvm::APSInt &from(BaseType X) {
-    llvm::APSInt Dummy = Base;
-    Dummy = X;
-    return BVF.getValue(Dummy);
+    static llvm::APSInt Base{sizeof(BaseType) * 8,
+                             std::is_unsigned<BaseType>::value};

It's not only that but just imagine testing a clang on a special hardware where 
they have let's say 9 bit bytes, for parity or something similar stuff.
The test would suddenly break.
Although I suspect there would be many more things to break TBH xD
