# Second semantic checking pass over the AST. Necessary because the old
# way had some inherent problems. Performs:
#
# * procvar checks
# * effect+exception tracking
# * closure analysis
# * checks for invalid usages of compiletime magics (not implemented)
# * checks for invalid usages of PNimNode (not implemented)
# * later: will do an escape analysis for closures at least
# Predefined effects:
# io, time (time dependent), gc (performs GC'ed allocation), exceptions,
# side effect (accesses global), store (stores into *type*),
# store_unkown (performs some store) --> store(any)|store(x)
# load (loads from *type*), recursive (recursive call), unsafe,
# endless (has endless loops), --> user effects are defined over *patterns*
# --> a TR macro can annotate the proc with user defined annotations
# --> the effect system can access these
# Load&Store analysis is performed on *paths*. A path is an access like
# obj.x.y[i].z; splitting paths up causes some problems:
#
# var x = obj.x
# var z = x.y[i].z
#
# Alias analysis is affected by this too! A good solution is *type splitting*:
# T becomes T1 and T2 if it's known that T1 and T2 can't alias.
#
# An aliasing problem and a race condition are effectively the same problem.
# Type based alias analysis is nice but not sufficient; especially splitting
# an array and filling it in parallel should be supported but is not easily
# done: It essentially requires a built-in 'indexSplit' operation and dependent
# typing.

exception tracking:
a() # raises 'x', 'e'
try:
b() # raises 'e'
except e:
# must not undo 'e' here; hrm
c()
--> we need a stack of scopes for this analysis
Effect tracking:
We track the effects per proc; forward declarations and indirect calls cause
problems: Forward declarations are computed lazily (we do this pass after
a whole module) and indirect calls are assumed the worst, unless they have
an effect annotation.
