Yes. The middle-end does not know anything about default arguments: they are
used only internally by the C++ frontend. When the trees enter the
middle-end, the FUNCTION_DECLs do not need the default arguments, the
CALL_EXPR are filled correctly, and the programmer errors have been already
reported.

I believe the simple way is faster for you to continue with you work. The
proper fix does not look easy at all.
