[Bug middle-end/23584] New: ipa-pure-const pass ignores dereferencing a volatile pointer type

[jconner at apple dot com]

A function that dereferences an absolute address in memory, e.g.:

  int test (void)
  {
    return * (volatile int *) 0x1234;
  }

Is incorrectly identified by the ipa-pure-const pass as being pure, resulting 
in invalid optimizations 
being performed.

This can be seen in the ipa-pure-const dump file:

  Function found to be pure: test
