Couldn't we use the symbol name directly? Maybe it needs a syntax to
indicate global variable. Like this?

Not sure it's needed here. IIUC it should see '=' first and you used
the same token with arg->name. Hmm.. do you want support accessing to
an unnamed address directly like below?

Maybe you want to check it before the update_arg_name().
