--- Comment #6 from Rich Felker <bugdal at aerifal dot cx> ---
I'm aware of the allowance to accept "other forms". It's unfortunately
underspecified (does the implementation need to be specific in what forms?
document them per the normal rules for implementation-defined behavior? etc.)
but indeed it exists.

Regardless, at least -pedantic should diagnose this, because it's a big footgun
for writing code that is not valid C, that only works with certain compilers
that implement C++-like behavior in C. I would also be happy with a separate
warning option controlling it, named something like like
-Wextended-constant-expressions.
