Why yes, yes it is
Hmmmmmm.

This is actually a bug in the original function too.  See
create_tmp_var_raw:



  /* Make the type of the variable writable.  */
  new_type = build_type_variant (type, 0, 0);
  TYPE_ATTRIBUTES (new_type) = TYPE_ATTRIBUTES (type);

  tmp_var = build_decl (VAR_DECL, prefix ? create_tmp_var_name
(prefix) : NULL,
                        type);


I wonder why nothing warns.
