[Bug c++/9048] Conditional expression error with static const members

I just ran into this bug.

By my reading of the C++ standard, I do not believe that an out-of-definition
should be necessary for a "static const int" class variable.  See Section
9.4.2 "Static data members", specifically paragraph 4.

It is true that the bug can be worked around by turning the conditional
expression "a = (c ? X : Y)" into "if (c) { a = X; } else { a = Y; }".
