I've (finally) committed this to trunk (as r204278), followed by the automated renaming patch (as r204279), having rechecked the bootstrap and regrtest on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (RHEL 6.4, in fact). So (at long last), the base class is symtab_node, with cgraph_node and varpool_node as C++ subclasses, and the "pointerness" of these types is consistent (i.e. none of them are pointers). Dave
