It simply should not fail.

The call site is available as part of the current location context.

> nore for its Index in the call

It's available as part of `ParmVarDecl`.

It already depends on the `CallExpr`. `ParmVarDecl`-based `VarRegion`s are 
different for different call sites even if `ParmVarDecl` is the same; moreover, 
they reside in non-overlapping memory spaces.

Ok, let's make an exception for this case and either use the old `VarRegion` 
(given that there's no redecl confusion in this case) or allow the `CallExpr` 
to be null (it's still trivially easy to extract all the necessary information).

I don't see any indication of that yet.
