Argument assignment is still broken in loops

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
   import crack.io cout;
   void a(uint64 v) {
       while (v) {
           cout `$v `;
           v >>= 1;
       }
   }

   a(4);

What is the expected output? 4 2 1 What do you see instead? 4 4 4 4 ...

Promotion of arguments from registers to allocas is happening in the context 
where the argument is assigned: if that context is a loop we'll continually 
alloca.  The promotion needs to happen in the function's first block.
