Actually it cannot know and here is why,
take the following example:
template<class T> const
T& operator |(T t1, const T& t2) { return t1 |= t2; }
struct f{ f &operator|=(const f&);};
f i;
f j;
f h = i | j;
We call |= which it self returns a reference so there is no way to the compiler
to know it is actually
returning a local variable or not.
