Sorry didn't CC to list.

sizeof (CONST) can be done and would return the size of an integral
type that would be able to hold that value, could be 4 for ints or 8
for long ints, if none of these can take up the value (because you're
substitutive constant is insanely large), the compiler would usually
give out a warning (if truncating) or an error straightaway.
