Not related to the strict aliasing issue - just seemed like it'd be tidier than reconstructing ranges manually from getArgs and getNumArgs.

I wasn't expecting it to involve all this work - but instead to change "arguments()" to return ArrayRef. Though perhaps you didn't go that route to allow future fixes to the strict aliasing (by having an adapting iterator - or perhaps arguments() already uses such an iterator that doesn't hit the strict aliasing issue?) needing to do even more cleaunp work?

I'm not sure that's appropriate - not all types with begin() and end() (even those with random access iterators) would have op[], so it doesn't seem appropriate to add it/depend on it?
