I don't understand your optimism.

1.
  some_type *ci;
  ...
  ret = get_shared(&ci, ...);

How could you guess about usage of the **ci?
Indeed get_shared() doesn't care about contains of **rci in some branches.

2. The same behaviour for lookup_mapper_entry() and **variable.
3. Probably compilator regression is occur.

I think the gcc is right in 1. and 2. predictions.
