All in all the real answer comes down to, is the data modified. Since C makes
no guarantees you must only declare things const if you know the library will
abide by it. In the case above I think you have to drop it.
Remember that const/immutable, and other attributes/properties aren't going to
change the ABI so dropping them will be safer then leaving them.
Thanks. Does this apply to all uses of const, or just complex members?
