For the record, you wouldn't need to take the address if you had an
internal function (internal-fn.def) of the form:
MEM_REF [<thing to clobber>] = internal_fn_that_returns_unknown_data ();
This was one of the reasons for adding internal functions, and we use
a similar technique for the interleaved load/stores.
Not an argument in favour of using calls. There are probably other
reasons to prefer your representation. It just seemed that, whatever
the arguments against using calls are, taking the address doesn't
need to be one of them.
