        <pre>We are not able to constant-fold the use of `Global.Member` in this code (with
clang -O3):

typedef float __m128 __attribute__((__vector_size__(16)));
class GlobalType {
public:
  GlobalType(float F) {
    Member = (__m128){F, F, F, F}; // simplified from _mm_load1_ps
  }
  __m128 Member;
};
static const GlobalType Global = 42.0f;

__m128 use(__m128 V) {
  return V * Global.Member;
}

However, we *are* able to fold this:

class GlobalType {
public:
  GlobalType(float F) {
    Member = F;
  }
  float Member;
};
static const GlobalType Global = 42.0f;

float use(float V) {
  return V * Global.Member;
}

In the float case, the folding happens in -globalopt.

(Note: running an extra `-globalopt -constprop` after the standard -O3
optimizations does fold it; for some reason -globalopt only folds the value of
the global, but doesn't substitute its use).</pre>
