It's actually implicit in the AST. IR generation deals with this via CGExpr.cpp's EmitExprForReferenceBinding, in particular, where we dig out the destructor for the temporary (which going into the variable ReferenceTemporaryDtor)  after digging through all of the subobject adjustments that may have been applied to the temporary as part of reference binding.
