The transformations done in fold are optimizations that duplicate things, 
hence the need to protect them from multiple evaluations.  If you cannot 
easily do so (e.g. at global level), you just don't do the optimizations.

But, yes, there is something true.  If you have variable sizes at the global 
level, they need to be evaluated once for all (unless self-referential, but 
this is another subject) so you need to do it somewhere.  But you cannot do 
it with SAVE_EXPRs since they would end up being shared across functions.
