I agree, and it also looks clearer to me what is happening.

What's the difference between __cpp_lib_is_constant_evaluated and
__glibcxx_is_constant_evaluated? Should these lines be using the same
macro here?

I wonder if maybe this should still be a call to `_M_init_local_buf()`
above, where the `_M_use_local_data()` used to be? That way the logic
stays in one place, and I don't imagine the compile time savings of not
immediately overwriting the first __len characters would be significant.

But looks good to me; I tried applying this on top of my frontend patch
and it looks like everything still works correctly.
