Start with the following code:

  void test(bool cond) {
      int x, y;
      (cond ? x : y) = 1 + 2;
  }

select the expression '(cond ? x: y)' and perform the 'Extract local variable' refactoring.

The result is:

  void test(bool cond) {
      int x, y;
      int extracted = cond ? x : y;
      extracted = 1 + 2;
  }

which clearly loses the original intent of the code.

The type of 'extracted' should be 'int&' instead.
