Please report constexpr ICEs now (with preprocessed repros), so we can fix them for the first VS 2017 toolset Update. Report A Problem in the IDE is a convenient way.

As a special favor to Boost developers, I will file constexpr ICEs in our internal database, if you send me a zipped preprocessed repro and corresponding command line to compile the preprocessed file.

Thanks,
