This isn't true.  The *default* implementation of the callgraph interface 
handles function pointers soundly, just non-aggressively: it assumes they 
can point to any function.  Of course you can provide your own 
implementation of the CallGraph interface, or use something more 
aggressive (e.g. DSA).

If you're seeing cases this isn't happening, please file a bug.
