//! `&foo()` or `match foo() { ref x => ... }`, where the user is
//! implicitly requesting a temporary.
//!
//! Somewhat surprisingly, not all lvalue expressions yield lvalue datums
//! when trans'd. Ultimately the reason for this is to micro-optimize
//! the resulting LLVM. For example, consider the following code:
//!
//! fn foo() -> Box<int> { ... }
//! let x = *foo();
//!
//! The expression `*foo()` is an lvalue, but if you invoke `expr::trans`,

//! more details.

//! ### Rvalues in detail

//! Rvalues datums are values with no cleanup scheduled. One must be
