this would cause an ICE in test case 20000629-1.c...

So removing the pointer of vectors is not an option.

Okay I can do what you want, and use POINTER_PLUS_EXPR for
vectors of pointers, and do the constant folding in assocate_pointerplus.
This way we get exactly the same code as before. It may be even possible
that this constant folding can improve something with scalars.

Bootstrapped and regression tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.

OK for trunk?
