    different alias sets cannot alias each other, with one important
    exception.  Consider something like:
 
-     struct S {int i; double d; };
+     struct S { int i; double d; };
 
    a store to an `S' can alias something of either type `int' or type
    `double'.  (However, a store to an `int' cannot alias a `double'

    It is illegal for SUPERSET to be zero; everything is implicitly a
    subset of alias set zero.  */
