hi Doug,

I think this is the wrong approach.  Given something like this:

struct foo {
   int X;
   int Y() {
     return X;
   }
};

I think it would make more sense to model "X" as an  
ImplicitThisFieldDeclRefExpr (or something like that) than as a  
memberexpr with an implicit cxxthisexpr.  This more naturally followed  
the source.  One specific problem is that MemberExpr would have to  
know how to handle "implicit this" in getSourceRange() for example.
