Basically things like

  D.2196_13 = (struct Ref *) &D.2150.lhs;
  D.2196_13->m ={v} &I;

where D.2150.lhs is const and thus there is a (not useless) cast from
(const struct Ref *) to (struct Ref *).  So what the code does is to
store to "const" qualified memory:

  D.2150.lhs.m = &I;

of course only as part of constructing it, so it is legal, but the middle-end
cannot tell apart legal from illegal cases.

So we can just declare all of them legal based on the fact that otherwise
this would certainly invoke undefined behavior.  In which case tree-level
forwprop can be teached to disregard conversions that change constness
only on address-forwarding.

Something like a more careful
