One case to consider:

```
int main() {
  while (!__builtin_is_constant_evaluated()) {}
}
```

If you treat the condition of the loop as manifestly constant-evaluated, the loop is finite: the condition evaluates to false.  If we say it's not manifestly constant-evaluated, but do some sort of constant-evaluation anyway, it's a well-defined infinite loop.  If we somehow treat it as manifestly constant-evaluated for the constant evaluation, but not at runtime, it's UB.
