care about the type / mutability of the pointer.

Returning `i`'s address in a long does not trigger the escape 
detector:

```
long foo (long s, return ref int i)
{
   s = cast (long) &i;
   return s;
}

auto bar ()
{
   int i;
   long s;
   return foo (s, i);
}
```

dmd compiles this without complaints.
