Multiple entry points are supposed to work like this (having multiple
succ edges of ENTRY_BLOCK_PTR) but they are currently completely broken,
this is one of reasons why :)
Why the code can't use simply ENTRY_BLOCK_PTR as starter of walk? It
seems to me like artefact from array based datastructure for dominators.
