Test case:

------------------------
static assert(!{
    auto p = null;
    return p !is null;
}());
------------------------
x.d(1): Error: static assert  (!true) is false
------------------------

The problem is the strange statement 'cmp ^= -1' in
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/blob/master/src/interpret.c#L2338.
When two pointers are both null, 'cmp' will be 1, and 'cmp ^ -1' is -2 which is
also true.
