// This pass finds function arguments that are often a common constant and 
// specializes a version of the called function for that constant.
//
// This pass simply does the cloning for functions it specializes.  It depends
// on IPSCCP and DAE to clean up the results.
//
// The initial heuristic favors constant arguments that are used in control 
// flow.
