Either that, or >the new BUILD_BUG_ON() macro isn't working... No, at this point of the compilation process it's neither zero nor one, it's simply considered non-constant by the compiler at that stage (this builtin is used for optimization, not during parsing, and the error gets generated when the body of the function gets parsed, not when code gets generated from it).
