- Conversion between integer and pointer is represented with CONVERT_EXPR.
- Converting integer to real uses FLOAT_EXPR
- and real to integer uses FIX_TRUNC_EXPR.

- Here is a list of all the functions that assume that widening and
- narrowing is always done with a NOP_EXPR:
- In convert.c, convert_to_integer.
- In c-typeck.c, build_binary_op (boolean ops), and truthvalue_conversion.
- In expr.c: expand_expr, for operands of a MULT_EXPR.
- In fold-const.c: fold.
- In tree.c: get_narrower and get_unwidened. */
