Ah, that seems to be a good idea.  I guess doing that first would
make sense.

I suppose we could add statistics to the base-address case
added by the patch, the existing DR_REF handling (I suppose
this might no longer catch anything with the base-address handling?).

Indeed we'd need to maintain a cache for the aff combination
expansion if we go that route, but the proposed patch looks like
a good improvement (as said, I'd do the check first).
