------- Comment #1 from baldrick at gcc dot gnu dot org  2010-07-05 18:43 
-------
It turns out that the problem is that when build_function_type_skip_args
creates
the new type, TYPE_POINTER_TO for the new type is still pointing to the old
type.
When gimple_call_set_fndecl is used to change the fndecl to one with less
arguments, an ADDR_EXPR is built.  The type of the ADDR_EXPR is obtained from
the
TYPE_POINTER_TO field of the new type, and thus has type pointer-to-old-type
rather than pointer-to-new-type.  I'm testing the following patch.  The idea
here is that calling copy_node has no advantage.  In spite of the comment,
build_distinct_type_copy preserves attributes etc too, so it might as well
be used always.  [I think the comment refers to some earlier logic, since
the change introducing build_distinct_type_copy post-dates it].
