Done.

About the rest of the patch, I thought I had seen richi comment on IRC 
(but can't find the comment now) that these cases where we could give a 
constant answer but decide not to because of C++ rules should be handled 
in the front end rather than generic code, which makes sense to me; that 
is, use folding_initializer only for giving more constant results, not 
for giving fewer constant results.  Maybe add another flag for limiting 
constant results if we think it's significantly easier to recognize 
these cases in fold?
