RE: [sv-bc] "Assignment ... to a constant expression"

The other side of this is whether something like the following works:

parameter c = 1;
begin
  int c = c ; // does the RHS reference the variable c or the parameter
c?
end

I might go to the safe at the entrance to the building to take my pistol
and shoot someone who writes this way, but the question is whether it is
legal (the code, not the pistol...)
