[cfe-dev] Getting an Allocaed block into an Expr

[Reid Kleckner]

You should be able to use EmitCallArgs to get most of the CallArgList and
add your CallArg either at the beginning or end of the argument sequence,
depending on where you want it. This is how we do constructor calls, for
example. As long as your argument is a scalar and not an aggregate, this
will work just fine, it's like the way we handle the 'this' parameter
separately in EmitCXXConstructorCall.
