        <pre>$ cat test.cc
struct Bar {
  int a;
};
const Bar bar;
$ clang -c test.cc
test.cc:4:11: error: default initialization of an object of const type 'const
Bar' requires a user-provided default constructor
const Bar bar;
          ^
1 error generated.

That's very misleading, since what's missing is the `= {1};` after `const Bar
bar`. Adding a user-provided default constructor probably isn't what's needed
here.

(And for a struct without fields, maybe the code should just be accepted as-is,
even without the `= {}`?)</pre>
