Re: useless_type_conversion_p vs pointer sizes

Nope, you misread the test:

  /* Changes in machine mode are never useless conversions unless we
     deal with aggregate types in which case we defer to later checks.  */
  if (TYPE_MODE (inner_type) != TYPE_MODE (outer_type)
      && !AGGREGATE_TYPE_P (inner_type))
    return false;

This will return false for any couple of pointers with different modes.
