In this example
void foo(int *p)
{
float *f = (float *)p;
new (p) float;
*f = 1.0;
}
the pointer is p. In fact the relevant pointer is always the argument to
placement new, and every pointer which PTA can associate with it.
We may simply have an impasse here. You have a set of rules which will change
the compiler to support placement new while giving better results for your
code. I believe that your change will penalize the code I used to work with.
