It doesn't help: the warning is still produced for the unevaluated branch of
__builtin_choose_expr, similarly to ternary operator (I tested with gcc-4.8).

My __scc1 could be written a bit simpler:

#define __scc1(X) (__typeof__((X)-(X))) (X)

but still it doesn't work for pointers to void or incomplete types.
