You do have to wrap it.  But if you call llvm::raw_string_ostream::str(),
it will internally flush before it returns the thing.  So if you write:

std::string s;
llvm::raw_string_ostream stream(s);
stream << "foo";
return stream.str();

then the code will be correct.  It's still a bit more annoying then if the
string were automatically part of the stream though, so there's probably a
clean way to design a version of it that owns the string.
