Confirmed on GCC 4.4.0 20080303.
I think this warning is disabled on purpose on instances because you may end up
with conditions being always true or false *in somes instances only*. And in
these cases, you certainly do not want the warning to occur, as the code may be
perfectly legit.
Reinstating the warning in instances would require analyzing whether the
current test depends, directly or indirectly, on generic formal parameters, and
issuing the warning only when there are no dependencies. This would require
quite a lot of work to do it properly.
