From: Mark Rustad <mark.d.rustad@xxxxxxxxx>
The macro __compiletime_error_fallback has an error in that it
lacks parens around the expansion of an expression. It also
lacks a conversion to a boolean value. The first problem can
result in a mis-evaluation. The second problem can also result
in an error if the value comes out negative. That would thwart
the intended error generation. That is, the error being asserted
would not in fact generate an error. Fix both problems by adding
!!() to the expansion.
