I'm not sure it's important, so I've removed the check for volatile. Also, `ExprWithCleanups` shouldn't' be emitted when this is in file scope, so I fixed that too.

Do you mean the constant-evaluator should evaluate initializers that are `ExprWithCleanups` to constants in a case like this?  It's possible to do so by seeing whether the sub-expression of `ExprWithCleanups` is constant, but it looks like we also have to set the `CleanupInfo::CleanupsHaveSideEffects` flag to false when it's a file scope expression so that `ConstExprEmitter::VisitExprWithCleanups` can constant-fold the `ExprWithCleanups` initializer.
