g1() should return 3, not 5.
What makes you say that?
"A return of 0 does not indicate that the
value is _not_ a constant, but merely that GCC cannot prove it is a
constant with the specified value of the '-O' option."
GCC doc also says:
"if you use it in an inlined function and pass an argument of the
function as the argument to the built-in, GCC never returns 1 when you
call the inline function with a string constant"
Does GCC considers (void*)0 as a string constant ?
