disambiguate iteration result.

    @static

Partially evaluate an expression at parse time.

For example, `@static Sys.iswindows() ? foo : bar` will evaluate `Sys.iswindows()` and insert
either `foo` or `bar` into the expression.
This is useful in cases where a construct would be invalid on other platforms,
such as a `ccall` to a non-existent function.
`@static if Sys.isapple() foo end` and `@static foo <&&,||> bar` are also valid syntax.
