Now I spent a whole day in vain. You probably mean 
`ExprEngine::getObjectUnderConstruction()`, (which takes 
`ConstructionContextItem` as its argument) but it turned out that there are no 
objects under construction in `checkPostCall()`. (Stack dump says 
`constructing_objects` as `null`.) It seems that the //only working solution// 
is the current one. I am not opposed to find better working solutions, but we 
cannot spend months to completely rewrite parts of the analyzer for such a 
simple patch. And note tags are definitely needed for iterator checkers.
