This is an unfortunate side-effect of r132983; the issue is that people use
something like the given construct, then depend on the it to get folded to a
constant, so that initialization, illegal gotos, etc. work correctly.  We
initially made some effort to do the right thing in both std=gnu99 and std=c99,
but it got to be too much effort to handle wacky edge cases, so gnu99 does the
non-compliant folding (and tells you that it did it in -pedantic mode).
