Interesting testcase. This makes me revise my previous opinion to:
we should not use any of the format specifier at all -- not %qD, not %qE.

What has this to do with lvalue? I believe the restriction is that,
it just does not make any sense to decrement a bool -- be it an lvalue
or an rvalue.
Paolo, what about
error ("invalid use of Boolean expression as operand to %<operator--%>")
?
