--- Comment #1 from Basile-z <b2.temp@gmx.com> ---
After a brief discussion on IRC it seems that C does not allow the conditional expression to be a lvalue, hence it could not be an assignment RHS.

>From http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1548.pdf

---
 The first operand is evaluated; there is a sequence point between its
evaluation and the
evaluation of the second or third operand (whichever is evaluated). The second
operand
is evaluated only if the first compares unequal to 0; the third operand is
evaluated only if
the first compares equal to 0; the result is the value of the second or third
operand
(whichever is evaluated), converted to the type described below.110)

[...]

110) A conditional expression does not yield an lvalue
---

that would not affect ImportC then.

sorry I meant LHS obviously

You are correct that C doesn't allow it.

Currently, D accepts it and generates the wrong code.

C++ accepts it, and generates the correct code.

We should either make it an error or do what C++ does.
