This is clearly better than the current version using
__builtin_constant_p(), but
I don't think it's safe in all cases, since there are expressions that
are constant
expressions to the compiler but are not valid input to the assembler.
I would prefer to see this fixed differently, but doing this one first is also
fine with me:
