This avoids breaking the old broken pointer offsetting via
(T)(ptr - ((T)0)->x) which should have used offsetof. Breakage
was exposed by the introduction of POINTER_DIFF_EXPR and making
PTA not considering that producing a pointer. The mitigation
for simple cases is to canonicalize
_2 = _1 - 8B;
o_9 = (struct obj *) _2;
to
o_9 = &MEM[_1 + -8B];
eliding one statement and the offending pointer subtraction.
