To my understanding, it is not a constant.

For example, 

  int i;
  i = (int) ((int*)0 + 1);

Could you tell the value of i from C language point of view?

According to C99 6.5.6 Point 8, 
"When an expression that has integer type is added to or subtracted
 from a pointer, the result has the type of the pointer operand."

Hence, the result of "(int*)0 + 1" is a 'pointer to type T'.
So, no, you can't tell the value.
It depends on integer size of target machine.
