This is because in the first pass we substitute the value of barptr.2_3 (barptr.0_1) when looking up barptr.2_3->val2 and since that happens in VNs IL we run into ao_ref_init_from_vn_reference which does not re-build a GENERIC tree for the access path but leaves us with NULL ao_ref.ref -- I suppose we could put the original ref tree in there, too, even if the pieces are "valueized", it's just a more imprecise representation of the ref. That helps this testcase. Bootstrap / regtest running on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
