//! # Const intrinsics
//!
//! Note: any changes to the constness of intrinsics should be discussed with the language team.
//! This includes changes in the stability of the constness.
//!
//! //FIXME(#132735) "old" style intrinsics support has been removed
//! In order to make an intrinsic usable at compile-time, it needs to be declared in the "new"
//! style, i.e. as a `#[rustc_intrinsic]` function, not inside an `extern` block. Then copy the
//! implementation from <https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/blob/master/src/intrinsics> to

//! and make the intrinsic declaration a `const fn`.
//! and make the intrinsic declaration below a `const fn`. This should be done in coordination with

//! If an intrinsic is supposed to be used from a `const fn` with a `rustc_const_stable` attribute,
//! `#[rustc_intrinsic_const_stable_indirect]` needs to be added to the intrinsic. Such a change requires
