Yes, char pointers are special. I'd like a non-special char pointer.

I often know that a char pointer will never alias non-char data, but can not
prove that it obeys all the complicated rules for __restrict.

For non-char pointers the attribute would be useless unless
-fno-strict-aliasing is in effect.
