The logic of this routine is fairly broken. It's trying to find an object construction (which is doesn't do correctly, even after your patch) and using that to blacklist all of the ill-formed patterns, rather than detecting based on the type and then white-listing the few exceptions.

It should really check for the valid cases directly (scalar/vector types are okay, class types are okay when we're using the trivial default ctor and the dtor is trivial) and fail with a generic error if our type is not one of those valid cases. That way, the restricted form of the checking for CXXConstructExpr that's currently being used will suffice for detecting the "constructed with trivial constructor" case.

Here's a tweaked version of your test case that Clang still accepts, even after your patch, and illustrates just how broken this code is:

namespace pr13812 {
  struct C {
    C(int x);
    ~C();
  };
  void f(void **ip) {
    static void *ips[] = { &&l0 };
    const C c0 = 17;
  l0:
    const C &c1 = 42;
    const C &c2 = c0;
    goto *ip;
  }
}
