Not really. Inlining gives you "free" interprocedural analysis, but
only across call sites where you actually perform inlining. If we
have a constant parameter introduced as main() calls some routine, and
that same parameter is passed down through many levels of calling,
then you'd have to inline all of them to notice the constant.
