 The problem is not with dereferencing the "int*", but when
 dereferencing the "int**".  Should I make loads-of-pointers use
 `ldind.i' then?
 
 CSC does not seem to do that (peverify on the same program with csc
 triggers more errors than mcs does ;-)

+When dereferencing int** there is no reference type involved, so
+ldind.ref is completely wrong. There is a pointer involved and csc
+uses ldind.i (ldind.u whould have been fine as well, I guess).
+The number of peverify errors is larger with csc only because it
+doesn't set initlocals when using /unsafe: mcs should likely use this
+same optimization.
