Error description

  • The inlining of a specific user function causes incorrect output

    ===== ACTUAL OUTPUT:

                               (mode & ERROR) ? EXITCODE :
                               0) == -1)
    
    
    ===== EXPECTED OUTPUT:
    The above snippet of code should evaluate correctly.
