You'll have to back that up with some standardese. AFAICT, 5.2.10/10 lets
addressof() work:
"That is, a reference cast reinterpret_cast<T&>(x) has the same effect as
the conversion *reinterpret_cast<T*>(&x) with the builtin & and * operators."
(And that reinterpret casting T* -> U* -> T* preserves the original value).
