I wrote the above.  When you post a followup, whatever interface

It makes it much easier to follow the discussion.

"const int x;" certainly does mean that x is const.  It doesn't mean
that x is *constant*.

The problem (and I agree that it's a problem) is that "const" doesn't
mean "constant".  It means "read-only".  As such, it works exactly the
way it's supposed to.

So as I see it, there are two problems here, neither of them horrible.

First, the "const" keyword would cause less confusion if it were spelled
"readonly".  It could work exactly the way it works now, and it wouldn't
raise the expectation that a readonly object can be used as a constant
expression.

Second, there's no way (other than enum and #define, both of which have
their problems) to define an identifier that can be used as a constant
expression.

We don't have the luxury of redefining the language and breaking
existing code, but if we did, I'd suggest the following (among many
other things):

1. Change the "const" keyword to "readonly".

2. Add a "constant" keyword, allowing you to define things like:

    constant int x = 42;

    constant int y = 1.0/3.0; /* not exactly representable,
                                 but still constant */

    constant char ESC = '\x1b';

A "constant" declaration does not create an object; no storage is
allocated for it, and it has no address.  The defined identifier
can be used as a constant expression of the specified type, with
the value of the initializer.  The initializer must be a constant
expression.  The type must be a scalar type; I haven't thought about
the semantics for pointer types, but "const void *nullptr = NULL;"
would be permitted and useful.

I would *not* suggest having both "const" and "constant" as keywords;
that would be too confusing.  Though I suppose the committee could
add a "constant" keyword, as described above, without breaking
anything other than code that uses "constant" as an identifier
(or adding a "_Constant" keyword and a <stdconstant.h> header with
"#define constant _Constant").

As for the current lack of this feature, I'd say you've already
made your point.
