Static initialisers and case labels can be expressions, but the expression itself must only contain constants. So it needs to be constant regardless of the value of any constants. If it contains 'a ? t : f' then both 't' and 'f' must be constant. In code, if 'a' is constant the optimiser discards one of 't' or 'f'. I'm not sure what happens for non-static initialisers (they generate odd code at the best of times).
