+ The docs also say/imply that access through union pointers
+ is legal (but *not* if you take the address of the union member,
+ i.e. the inverse), such that you can do
+
+ typedef union {
+ int d;
+ } U;
+
+ int rv;
+ void breakme()
+ {
+ U *rv0;
+ U *pretmp = (U*)&rv;
+ rv0 = pretmp;
+ rv0->d = 42;
+ }
+ To implement this, we just punt on accesses through union
+ pointers entirely.
