"Cv-qualified references are ill-formed except
when the cv-qualifiers are introduced through the use of a typedef
(7.1.3)"

I am unable to figure out an illustration of the above exception
that isnt like the following:

   typedef int &iref_t;
   const iref_t iref; // error

Can anyone help?

Well... Your second line is an error, but not because of the const.
You must initialize every reference.

This example compiles in GCC 4.1:

typedef int& iref_t;
int i;
const iref_t iref = i;

To answer your actual question, the only variation to your example I
could think of would be to trade const for volatale (or const
volatile):

typedef int& iref_t;
int i;
volatile iref_t iref = i;
