Zoe Carver says: "We decided that libc++ only supports C++20 constexpr algorithms when is_constant_evaluated is also supported. Here's a link to the discussion."

After this patch, the following C++20 test case seems to work okay for me in all its configurations:
// clang++ -std=c++20 -DX=0 should work // clang++ -std=c++20 -DX=1 should work // clang++ -std=c++20 -DX=2 should work // clang++ -std=c++20 -DX=3 should not work #if X & 1 #define _LIBCPP_HAS_NO_BUILTIN_IS_CONSTANT_EVALUATED #endif #include <algorithm> constexpr int test() { int x[10] {}; int y[10] {}; std::copy(x, x+10, y); std::copy_n(x, 10, y); std::move(x, x+10, y); std::copy_backward(x, x+10, y+10); std::move_backward(x, x+10, y+10); return 0; } int main() { #if X & 2 constexpr int i = test(); #else const int i = test(); #endif }

Aw, phooey. @ldionne, do you think it would make sense to preemptively // UNSUPPORTED: clang-8 on these char_traits tests I'm changing?
If you're expecting buildbot breakage, which likely @ldionne will be the one to fix and Arthur won't, then I suggest that @ldionne should be the one to land this patch. Or else Slack me so that we can both be paying attention at the same time. I just don't want to land it right before you go to sleep or something.
