Hi Mike:

I read that meaning into your use of the phrase "constant actuals (see
17.3)".

However, I think Shalom has a point that getting this meaning is
asking a lot of a reader who hasn't participated in or had visibility
into what went on in SV-SC.

Can you massage the phrase

(*) an actual expression involving terms that are either explicitly
    const-cast or implicitly treated as as const-cast because they are
    automatics

into something that can be used instead of "constant actual".  Maybe
you can find a short phrase that doesn't already have a defined
meaning and define it to mean (*) and then use the short phrase.

J.H.
