Right, the C11 standard says that the controlling expression of
_Static_assert must be an integer constant expression. The expression
above contains address constants that are evaluated, so it is not an
integer constant expression.
The test could be rewritten using offsetof (untested):
_Static_assert(offsetof(struct anonymous, i)
== offsetof(struct anonymous, w.k),
"Anonymous union alignment botch");
Cheers,
