----------------
This is the problematic point which is not working. I left the comments 
intentionally in the code.

The problem is that in `postStmt` we are //after//  the operation. Thus the 
value of the operand (`SubExpr`) is not `i` anymore, but the //former value// 
of `i` (a pointer to a symbolic region initially). Instead, the result is `i` 
in case of prefix operators, but also the former value in case of postfix 
operators. This is correct, of course, because here, after the call the value 
of `i` was changed, thus it is not equal to the parameter. However, we need the 
region of `i` here and/or the new value bound to it (e.g. the pointer to an 
element region which is usually the result of a `++` or `--` on a pointer to a 
symbolic region). How to reach that? Of course, in `preStmt` the operand is `i` 
as it should be. The same is true for binary operators `+=` and `-=`.
