Strong +1.

As for the "did you mean", I actually see that as somewhat reasonable text. `<<` is a reasonable typo for `<` (which yields a bool), similar for `>>` and `>`. However, if we had data to back up that presumption, it would be better.

It may be worth doing the svn blame dance to see if it's discussed as part of the original review. One possibility is that `||` can be overloaded in C++ and so perhaps || with a constant operand is not a bug. But that seems like pretty weak rationale (we can always see if there's an overloaded || and not issue the diagnostic in that circumstance).
