        When I messed with the "partial" module,
I compared CIL's normal output to the partially
evaluated output, like e.g.

    cilly.byte --noPrintLn \
               --out parteval.cil.c parteval.c
    cilly.byte --noPrintLn \
               --domakeCFG \
               --dopartial --partial_root_function foo --partial_global_const \
               --out parteval-do.cil.c parteval.c
    diff -up parteval.cil.c parteval-do.cil.c

Not elegant, but simple.

        AFAIK, there isn't.

Module "partial" has kind of preprocessor
character; it enables later analyses or
optimizations to kick in more effectively.
