// Work around: avoid ICE in miri.
// FIXME(wesleywiser) we don't currently handle the case where we try to make a ref
// from a function argument that hasn't been assigned to in this function. The main
// issue is if an arg is a fat-pointer, miri `expects()` to be able to read the value
// of that pointer to get size info. However, since this is `ConstProp`, that argument
// doesn't actually have a backing value and so this causes an ICE.
// Work around: avoid ICE in miri. FIXME(wesleywiser)
// The Miri engine ICEs when taking a reference to an uninitialized unsized
// local. There's nothing it can do here: taking a reference needs an allocation
// which needs to know the size. Normally that's okay as during execution
// (e.g. for CTFE) it can never happen. But here in const_prop
// we leave function arguments uninitialized, so if one of these is unsized
// and has a reference taken, we get an ICE.
