--- Comment #1 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Maybe a similar issue to PR 81050, i.e. Latin1 isn't valid as a wide charset. In which case, we should give an error instead of ICE if possible. Reduced to remove library headers and C++20 features: template<typename, typename> constexpr bool is_same_v = false; template<typename T> constexpr bool is_same_v<T,T> = true; template<typename CharT> auto units_suffix() noexcept { if constexpr (is_same_v<CharT, wchar_t>) return L"ms"; else return "ms"; } int main() { units_suffix<wchar_t>(); } during RTL pass: expand ice.cc: In function ‘auto units_suffix() [with CharT = wchar_t]’: ice.cc:9:12: internal compiler error: in get_constant_size, at varasm.cc:3418 9 | return L"ms"; | ^~~~~ 0x8a6410 get_constant_size /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/varasm.cc:3418 0x1519a88 assemble_constant_contents /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/varasm.cc:3615 0x151af15 output_constant_def_contents /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/varasm.cc:3666 0x151b264 maybe_output_constant_def_contents /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/varasm.cc:3602 0x151b264 output_constant_def(tree_node*, int) /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/varasm.cc:3568 0xe23b2e expand_expr_constant /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/expr.cc:8592 0xe23b2e expand_expr_addr_expr_1 /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/expr.cc:8619 0xe24169 expand_expr_addr_expr /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/expr.cc:8812 0xe19464 expand_expr_real_1(tree_node*, rtx_def*, machine_mode, expand_modifier, rtx_def**, bool) /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/expr.cc:12096 0xe26825 store_expr(tree_node*, rtx_def*, int, bool, bool) /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/expr.cc:6330 0xe28090 expand_assignment(tree_node*, tree_node*, bool) /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/expr.cc:6051 0xcf589c expand_gimple_stmt_1 /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/cfgexpand.cc:3946 0xcf589c expand_gimple_stmt /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/cfgexpand.cc:4044 0xcfc0ce expand_gimple_basic_block /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/cfgexpand.cc:6096 0xcfdbe7 execute /home/jwakely/src/gcc/gcc/gcc/cfgexpand.cc:6822 Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source (by using -freport-bug).

And this does ICE "gcc version 12.0.1 20220316 (experimental) (GCC)" so it probably is due to checking.
