Sorry, I didn't really specify the standard (and mess c with c++).

C11 standard.
6.8.4.2 The switch statement.

So, by C11 standard case label shall be a constant expression.

Fields of const-qualified structs and unions, that were initialized with const
literals ARE *constant expressions*, isn't it?

-----------------

Yes, the standard also says that uninitialized part of union is undefined, but
that's not that case if we have fields with the same size.

-----------------

Sorry for wasting your time.
