There's if(__ctfe), but unfortunately (IIRC) it doesn't work with static
if, because CTFE runs after static ifs have been processed. So it might
not be enough if you have code that has parts that can't run under CTFE.
Those parts will taint all parent functions up the call tree as
non-CTFEable, so once you have them you're out of luck.
