Note that in this case finding the target means indirecting through a 
memory address, and hence we would have to track the attributes of all 
memory locations which is a difficult and perhaps unsolvable problem.

As I said before, I think what you are trying to do is fundamentally 
flawed.  If you need attributes, you use them when generating RTL, not 
when optimizing or emitting RTL.
