OK. But, we're pushing the boundary of "bug" for Stage 3. If you need to do a cleanup to fix a bug, then please try to mention what bug you're fixing.

oh, sorry, I forgot we were stage 3. I was looking at bug 21799 and the representation of MEMBER_TYPE. this cleanup came out of trying to put the cv qualifiers on the MEMBER_TYPE node itself. However, I've come to the conclusion that trying to do that is wrong. The this-pointer qualifiers are NOT the same as regular cv qualifiers, and trying to represent them in the same way causes all sorts of problems.

I'll keep this patch back until we branch.
