I don't think it's relevant. Can you think of any place it might be?
In line 4 of the testcase the JLS requires that FULL_NAME be "A
compile-time constant expression"
In this case A + B + C where A, B and C are all constants, is required
to be a constant.
Does this have any relevance with respect to the patch? I have no idea.
I will be quiet now.
