How's this?  It's not quite valid C, but it "works":

Subject: [PATCH] Rename, strengthen MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON()

There are some cases where we really want the parser to break if it can,
but BUG_ON() if it can't.  We can do that using sizeof() and a BUG_ON():
the compiler will only emit the test if it is non-constant.
