Hi,

I didn't really think of pointer fields (nor of vector fields originally) when 
implementing the scalar_storage_order attribute, so they are swapped as well.
As Ulrich pointed out, this is problematic to describe in DWARF and probably 
not very useful in any case, so the attached patch pulls them out.

Tested on x86-64/Linux, OK for mainline?

	* doc/extend.texi (scalar_storage_order): Mention effect on pointer
	and vector fields.
	* tree.h (reverse_storage_order_for_component_p): Return false if
	the type is a pointer.
c/
	* c-typeck.c (build_unary_op) <ADDR_EXPR>: Do not issue an error
	on the address of a pointer field in a record with reverse SSO.

	* gcc.dg/sso-12.c: New test.

 This attribute is supported only for targets that use a uniform default
 scalar storage order (fortunately, most of them), i.e.@: targets that store
 the scalars either all in big-endian or all in little-endian.
