//      // For an N-dim array ref, where N > 1, insert:
//      aptr1 = getElementPtr [N-dim array] * lastPtr, uint firstIndex
//      aptr2 = cast [N-dim-arry] * aptr to [<N-1>-dim-array] *
// }
// Then it replaces the original instruction with an equivalent one that
// uses the last aptr2 generated in the loop and a single index.
