<pre>
    I'd like to revise the diagnostic
```
error: cannot initialize a variable of type 'const icun_status' with an rvalue of type 'int'
```
to
```
error: cannot initialize a constant of type 'icun_status' with an rvalue of type 'int'
```

The `const` in this diagnostic doesn't appear to be doing much other than ensuring (unnecessary) technical accuracy. I don't think similar nouns exist for `volatile` and `restrict` don't exist: they can remain `variable`.

I have self-assigned, but this is a good candidate for someone looking to get started with Clang, and I'll happily hand it off in that case.
