I use all_refs_explicit_p () to go a conservative path. And indeed
I may trip aliases (well, the code doesn't handle aliases correctly
anyway I guess - I just walk vars via
/* Create constraints for global variables and their initializers. */
FOR_EACH_VARIABLE (var)
{
if (var->alias && var->analyzed)
continue;
get_vi_for_tree (var->decl);
}
and in get_vi_for_tree look at its ref list. So I should only get
"ultimate" alias targets and only those may have initializers?
