[LLVMdev] [DragonEgg] Why Fortran's "call flush()" is converted to "call void bitcast (void (...)* @_gfortran_flush_i4 to void (i8*)*)(i8* null) nounwind" ?

I tried to do this during llvm-gcc times and it turned out that there
might be different calls with different signatures in single module
e.g. function with N arguments is called in some cases with N - 1
first args and since the remaining one is unused everything is fine.
So, basically the function *is* varargs but it's not possible to
deduce this from the args...

I don't recall all the details now though...
