Making the address space default to zero is convenient, but dangerous. This means that xforms that play with pointers need to be very careful to propagate this info in some cases. Do you think this is the best way to go? Do many clients of PointerType::get need to be aware of addr spaces?
I'm going to add a new method for getting a pointer type 'PointerType::getUnqual()' that only takes an element type, the standard 'PointerType::get()' will take both an element type and address space with no default values. This should at least make it explicit in the code which clients do not pass in an address space. There are currently many clients, so this should help make the work incremental.
