  40 /* Change of width--truncation and extension of integers or reals--
  41    is represented with NOP_EXPR.  Proper functioning of many things
  42    assumes that no other conversions can be NOP_EXPRs.
  43
  44    Conversion between integer and pointer is represented with CONVERT_EXPR.
  45    Converting integer to real uses FLOAT_EXPR
  46    and real to integer uses FIX_TRUNC_EXPR.
  47
  48    Here is a list of all the functions that assume that widening and
  49    narrowing is always done with a NOP_EXPR:
  50      In convert.c, convert_to_integer.
  51      In c-typeck.c, build_binary_op (boolean ops), and
  52         c_common_truthvalue_conversion.
  53      In expr.c: expand_expr, for operands of a MULT_EXPR.
  54      In fold-const.c: fold.
  55      In tree.c: get_narrower and get_unwidened.  */
