Description Ian Wienand 2008-04-25 22:16:57 UTC 
Hi,

It would be great if ? warned when it got a (presumably accidental) assignment like if statements do; e.g.

$ cat test.c
int main (void)
{
	int i;
	return (i = 20) ? 10 : 15;	
}
$ gcc-4.3 -Wall test.c 

It seems like this would be quite a common mistake?
