In order to increase the accuracy of the data dependence analysis, i do,
at some point, plan on tracking the sizes of malloc sites, and giving an
upper bound on them (for cases of loops, etc) when possible

on an interprocedural basis, that should allow you to generate at least
"this is obviously wrong" warnings.
