M_E is a macro and that macro is expanded in your

  double varX = M_E;

line. The expansion is not in math.h. The expansion is in the main file.

By the way, we have a llvm channel on the cpplang slack 
(https://cpplang.slack.com). That is a more suitable venue for your 
questions. This is the development mailing list.

Thanks,
