--- Comment #6 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
I think we should not preserve side-effects of gcc_assert, the
define with __builtin_unreachable is "broken" in that way, I'm not
sure why we decided to introduce that variant?
gcc_assert should be consistent with gcc_checking_assert and the latter
uses
#if CHECKING_P
#define gcc_checking_assert(EXPR) gcc_assert (EXPR)
#else
/* N.B.: in release build EXPR is not evaluated. */
#define gcc_checking_assert(EXPR) ((void)(0 && (EXPR)))
#endif
The original desired behavior (not evaluate side-effects) is consistent
with assert(3).
