--- Comment #1 from Basile-z <b2.temp at gmx.com> ---
After a brief discussion on IRC it seems that C does not allow the conditional
expression to be a lvalue, hence it could not be an assignment RHS.

---
 The first operand is evaluated; there is a sequence point between its
evaluation and the
evaluation of the second or third operand (whichever is evaluated). The second
operand
is evaluated only if the first compares unequal to 0; the third operand is
evaluated only if
the first compares equal to 0; the result is the value of the second or third
operand
(whichever is evaluated), converted to the type described below.110)

110) A conditional expression does not yield an lvalue

that would not affect ImportC then.
