Nope.  They are recognized as non-ICE (try with struct { int n :<expr>;};
for tester).  Again, no check for ICE in enums, and that one is for
a good reason - we might very well want non-integer enums as an extension
at some point.  We certainly need to check that they are constant, though.

If you want to test ICE recognition, right now only the following places
are checking for it:
	* bitfield width
	* __attribute__((aligned(<number>)))
	* __attribute__((address_space(<number>)))
	* [<index>] in designators within initializer list
	* [<index> ... <index>] - ditto, gccism

That's it.  We can use it elsewhere too, but that's a separate bunch of
patches (trivial to do now).
