--- Comment #5 from Marek Polacek <mpolacek at gcc dot gnu.org> --- It appears that cp_fold isn't handling UNARY_PLUS_EXPR properly. I've modified the code according to the UNARY_PLUS_EXPR handling in cxx_eval_constant_expression like this: --- a/gcc/cp/cp-gimplify.c +++ b/gcc/cp/cp-gimplify.c @@ -2009,6 +2009,8 @@ cp_fold (tree x) else x = fold_build1_loc (loc, code, TREE_TYPE (x), op0); } + else if (code == UNARY_PLUS_EXPR) + x = fold_convert (TREE_TYPE (x), op0); else x = fold (x); and that seems to fix the problem.
