27 * Interprocedural analysis to estimate the calling relation.
29 * This analysis computes all entities representing methods that
30 * can be called at a Call node. Further it computes a set of
31 * methods that are 'free', i.e., their adress is handled by
32 * the program directly, or they are visible external.
