Yes, pair sets are preprocessed during reading config files, so only constant
expressions are allowed in them. The nonsensical error message 'Value 31343232
out of range' is a result of a bug - some random value is used instead
of void value. But the fix for this bug would not help you.

Probably no, you have to define separate functions with constant pair sets.
