Although the code in the else block is the same, it's for a very different
reason. But I'm not sure it's correct. For example,
int x;
x, ++x;
doesn't raise an error. Yet the first x has no effect!
Shouldn't the part in the else clause be e1->sideeffect() && e2->sideeffect() ?

Declarations are not legal inside comma expressions. But the compiler generates
them in several places. They are also used in implementing struct constructors
and postblit, for example.
There's definitely something a bit weird about the compiler generating code
that couldn't get past the parsing stage.
