            Bug ID: 110642
           Summary: Undefined behavior in same constant expression is
                    found not always
           Product: gcc
           Version: 13.1.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: fchelnokov at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

This lambda

auto f = [](int i) {
    const auto y = i;
    return [&] () {
        return y;
    };
};

returns another lambda that makes undefined behavior: it accesses a stack
variable (y) after the end of its life.

And it is successfully caught during constant expression evaluation by GCC and
other compilers, if verified like this:

constexpr auto g = f(3)();
static_assert( f(3)() == 3 );
Online demo: https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/3Y4cGMG15

But if one changes the order of lines:

static_assert( f(3)() == 3 );
constexpr auto g = f(3)();

then GCC stops detecting undefined behavior. Online demo:

Could you please review why this happens?
