[Bug c++/35987] New: [4.1/4.2/4.3/4.4 regression] ICE with invalid if-condition

[reichelt at gcc dot gnu dot org]

The following invalid code snippet triggers an ICE since GCC 3.0:

================================
void foo(char* p)
{
  if (++p = true);
}
================================

bug.cc: In function 'void foo(char*)':
bug.cc:3: error: cannot convert 'bool' to 'char*' in assignment
bug.cc:3: internal compiler error: tree check: expected class 'type', have
'exceptional' (error_mark) in fold_comparison, at fold-const.c:8730
Please submit a full bug report, [etc.]
