> iv->step should never be a pointer type
This is created by SCEV.
simple_iv_with_niters in the case where no CHREC is found creates an IV with
base == ev, offset == 0;
however in this case EV is a POINTER_PLUS_EXPR and so the type is a pointer.
it ends up creating an unusable expression.
following the remaining code, it looks like this should be

}
So I think there are two bugs here. I also think the IVopts one is a bug, as
it's clearly changing the type and introducing a mismatch there too.
I'm regression testing both changes.
