From gcc-4.0 I think but I don't know when/if it was fixed in the
latest. I use CodeSourcery's toolchain and they fixed in in gcc-4.1
but that's with their own patches. Try to compile the code below. It
should work if the toolchain is OK:

#include <stdlib.h>

#define EXPR atoi(argv[1])

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
static int a[] = {
__builtin_constant_p(EXPR) ? EXPR : 0
};

return a[0];
}
