            Bug ID: 111272
           Summary: Truncated error messages with -std=c++23 and
                    -std=c++26
           Product: gcc
           Version: 14.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: pkeir at outlook dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

The C++14 code below requires the `constexpr` specifier on the `ft` member
function. Compiling this with `-std=c++14`, `-std=c++17` or `-std=c++20` will
provide a helpful error message which identifies the need to add the
`constexpr` specifier to `ft`.

However, if `-std=c++23`, or `-std=c++26` are used, no message indicating the
need for `constexpr` on `ft` is displayed; and the message itself is truncated:
ending only in "...not usable as a 'constexpr' function because:".

struct Jam
{
  // constexpr  // n.b.
  int ft() { return 42; }

  constexpr
  Jam() { ft(); }
};

constexpr bool test()
{
  Jam j;
  return true;
}

static_assert(test(), "");

The full truncated error message is:
