Currently, C.wasInlined() == true means that we did analyze the implementation.

The implementation could be more precise in telling you what happened (did the 
function allocate memory or not).
You'd get less false negatives if you just do not track regions allocated by 
inlined functions - less tracking -> less bug reports -> less false positives. 
No? However, you might miss real bugs(have false negatives).

Said that, I do not think that the current decision is supported by real world 
examples, as it should be....
