        <pre>Thanks for the work to emit a warning on `if constexpr
(std::is_constant_evaluated())` (<a class="bz_bug_link 
          bz_status_RESOLVED  bz_closed"
   title="RESOLVED FIXED - Please warn on if constexpr (std::is_constant_evaluated())"
   href="show_bug.cgi?id=42977">https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42977</a>),
which I think is a great idea. Here's a wrinkle...

Using Godbolt's clang trunk (31st December 2019,
6185dc0eb3ad35e1f85f2ab1038ca978563099f4) with `-std=c++2a -O1` to compile the
following:


#include <type_traits>

int main() {
    int b = 2;
    const int a = std::is_constant_evaluated() ? b : 1;
    return a;
}


I get this warning:


<source>:5:19: warning: 'std::is_constant_evaluated' will always evaluate to
'true' in a manifestly constant-evaluated expression [-Wconstant-evaluated]

    const int a = std::is_constant_evaluated() ? b : 1;

                  ^


...yet the generated code is returning 1, showing that the
`is_constant_evaluated()` has evaluated to false and thus that the warning is
incorrect.

The example originates from a snippet in Daveed Vandevoorde's "C++ Constants"
C++Now 2019 talk (around 39m00s).</pre>
