I think we're in a case where we want to continue in order to ensure we go through the entire flow, so I THINK we should treat this as 'we have a value we don't know, so its just not found', and should fall into the check on 5019 (unless of course, there is a 'default' option!).

I do see what you are saying but I think that we have similar cases where without a value the next step is impossible to do for example in `EvaluateStmt` the `case Stmt::ReturnStmtClass:` case:

  case Stmt::ReturnStmtClass: {
     const Expr *RetExpr = cast<ReturnStmt>(S)->getRetValue();
     FullExpressionRAII Scope(Info);
     if (RetExpr && RetExpr->isValueDependent()) {
       EvaluateDependentExpr(RetExpr, Info);
       // We know we returned, but we don't know what the value is.
       return ESR_Failed;
     }

We can't return a value we can't calculate right? and here as well for the `Stmt::DoStmtClass` case

  if (DS->getCond()->isValueDependent()) {
     EvaluateDependentExpr(DS->getCond(), Info);
     // Bailout as we don't know whether to keep going or terminate the loop.
     return ESR_Failed;
   }

This case feels the same as the two above, we can't calculate the jump for the switch if we can't calculate the value.
