What about passing another parameter down eval_const_expressions_mutator
(which is static, so changing the API isn't a problem) that basically
tells us whether we actually should evaluate expressions or just perform
the transformation?
There's seems to be basically a couple of places where we call dangerous
things:
* simplify_function (via ->evaluate_function->evaluate_expr) which is called in a bunch of places
* evaluate_expr which is directly called in T_ArrayExpr T_ArrayCoerceExpr
All places I've inspected so far need to deal with simplify_function
returning NULL anyway, so that seems like a viable fix.
