Sourc code for t.cpp:
------------------------------------------------
int mymain()
{
int i = 1;
int j = 2;
const volatile int &ri = i;
const_cast<int *>(&ri) = &j; // error - lvalue required for =
return 0;
}
------------------------------------------------
Expected Behaviour:
------------------------------------------------
"t.cpp", line 8.25: 1540-2410 (S) The left side of the "=" operator must be an
lvalue.
------------------------------------------------
Actual Behaviour:
------------------------------------------------
t.cpp:6: ISO C++ forbids cast to non-reference type used as lvalue
t.cpp:6: ISO C++ forbids cast to non-reference type used as lvalue
t.cpp:6: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

------------------------------------------------
How-To-Repeat:
------------------------------------------------
gcc -v -save-temps -c t.cpp
------------------------------------------------
Notes:
------------------------------------------------
Compilation failure is expected for this test case. However the gcc produces
an Internal compiler error on AIX which leads to termination of the compilation
process.
