The following code should change the value of rx:
  int x=5; int y=3;
  int& rx=x; int& ry=y;
  ((rx>ry) ? rx : ry) = 10;

However is doesn't.

The following code DO change the value of rx:
  int x=5; int y=3;
  int& rx=x; int& ry=y;
  ((rx>1) ? rx : ry) = 10;

The same happens for ry.

Compilation command didn't include any flags.
