+    if (Delegating)
       return BuildDelegatingInitializer(BaseTInfo, Init, ClassDecl);

Yes, I have tried this, and it leads to a crash [[ https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/ca2f53897a2f2a60d8cb1538d5fcf930d814e9f5/clang/lib/Sema/SemaDeclCXX.cpp#L4444 | here ]] (because the cast fails). Apparently, this code path in `BuildDelegatingInitializer()` is never exercised for dependent contexts, despite the comment, and therefore doesn't work.

-    DiagnoseUseOfDecl(Dtor, Initializer->getSourceLocation());

Without this, clang crashes because `LookupDestructor()` calls `LookupSpecialMember()`, which then runs into [[ https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/ca2f53897a2f2a60d8cb1538d5fcf930d814e9f5/clang/lib/Sema/SemaLookup.cpp#L3064-L3065 | this assertion ]]:
```
clang-14: /[...]/llvm-project/clang/lib/Sema/SemaLookup.cpp:3064: clang::Sema::SpecialMemberOverloadResult clang::Sema::LookupSpecialMember(clang::CXXRecordDecl*, clang::Sema::CXXSpecialMember, bool, bool, bool, bool, bool): Assertion `CanDeclareSpecialMemberFunction(RD) && "doing special member lookup into record that isn't fully complete"' failed.
```
Previously, this wasn't necessary because no delegating constructors would be generated for templates, and so this function wasn't ever called in a dependent context.
