[LLVMdev] question about enabling cfl-aa and collecting a57 numbers

Yes.
I've attached an updated patch that does the following:

1. Fixes the partialalias of globals/arguments
2. Enables partialalias for cases where nothing has been unified to a
global/argument
3. Fixes that select was unifying the condition to the other pieces (the
condition does not need to be processed :P). This was causing unnecessary
aliasing.
4. Adds a regression test to must-and-partial
5. Fixes the pass ordering
6. Does not alias non-pointer arguments to random things :)
7. Fixes the CFL test cases that break with above.
