sorry, i don't quite get the question. are you trying to create a ptr-to-ptr-to-something type? or are you trying to create a variable whose value would be the address of another variable of ptr-to-something type?

i'm afraid you can't do this as is. SSA_NAMEs are 'abstract' variables, you can't take their address, etc. what you need is a VAR_DECL and that implies a whole lot more transformations. also look into the pointer alias analysis parts of gcc.
