--- Comment #5 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The new definition of operator== will be something like: #if __GXX_TYPEINFO_EQUALITY_INLINE || __cplusplus > 202002L _GLIBCXX23_CONSTEXPR inline bool type_info::operator==(const type_info& __arg) const _GLIBCXX_NOEXCEPT { if (__name == __arg.__name) return true; if (!std::__is_constant_evaluated()) return false; #if !__GXX_TYPEINFO_EQUALITY_INLINE // ABI requires comparisons to be non-inline. return __equal(__arg); #elif !__GXX_MERGED_TYPEINFO_NAMES // Need to do string comparison. return __name[0] != '*' && __builtin_strcmp (__name, __arg.name()) == 0; #else return false; #endif } # endif i.e. no strcmp for the constant evaluation case. During constant evaluation I think we only need to handle types that are completely defined in the current TU, so we can ignore aliasing of _ZTi symbols, and we can ignore the problem of non-unique std::type_info objects. Within the TU they will be unique.
