How does one perform register allocation on scalar variables that may
be pointed to by others?


I am curious because, a pointer assumes that the variable it points to
resides in memory, but in actuality the variable resides in a register.


I am sure there is a solution to this problem and has been asked before
in the newsgroup, but could you please e-mail the answer to me anyway?
