     3  Pointer analysis to-do list
     4  ===========================
     5  
     6  CONSTRAINT GENERATION:
     7  - support reflection:
     8    - a couple of operators are missing
     9    - reflect.Values may contain lvalues (CanAddr)
    10  - implement native intrinsics.  These vary by platform.
    11  - add to pts(a.panic) a label representing all runtime panics, e.g.
    12    runtime.{TypeAssertionError,errorString,errorCString}.
    13  
    14  OPTIMISATIONS
    15  - pre-solver: 
    16    pointer equivalence: extend HVN to HRU
    17    location equivalence
    18  - solver: HCD, LCD.
    19  - experiment with map+slice worklist in lieu of bitset.
    20    It may have faster insert.
    21  
    22  MISC:
    23  - Test on all platforms.  
    24    Currently we assume these go/build tags: linux, amd64, !cgo.
    25  
    26  MAINTAINABILITY
    27  - Think about ways to make debugging this code easier.  PTA logs
    28    routinely exceed a million lines and require training to read.
    29  
    30  BUGS: 
    31  - There's a crash bug in stdlib_test + reflection, rVCallConstraint.
