         the space first we would have to deal with cleaning it up if

-        The case where EXP the initializer is a call to a constructor or a
-        function returning a class is a bit of a grey area in the
-        standard; it's unclear whether or not it should be allowed to
-        throw.  We used to say no, as that allowed us to optimize this
-        case without worrying about deallocating the exception object if
-        it does.  But that conflicted with expectations (PR 13944) and the
-        EDG compiler; now we wrap the initialization in a TRY_CATCH_EXPR
-        to call do_free_exception rather than in a MUST_NOT_THROW_EXPR,
-        for this case only.

          Note that we don't check the return value from stabilize_init
          because it will only return false in cases where elided is true,
