----------------
I don't think this comment is accurate. Looking at splitCodeGen, in the case of parallelism=1 it will call codegen() on the input Module, which will apply passes to emit the Module, which in turn will modify it. In the case of parallelism>1, it will call SplitModule, which will externalize some symbols before doing the cloning (because the default of PreserveLocals is false).
