i've been working on this (also because of a post-pass scheduler).

i managed to hand the source values (values passed to the AA) over to
the machine instruction level. unfortunately the "codegen prepare" pass
rewrites GEP llvm instructions and confuses the AA. some work needs to
be done inside the AA to get reasonable results.

i did not have time to prepare and submit a patch for llvm.
