semantic parser of source files

 Sparse, the semantic parser, provides a compiler frontend capable of
 parsing most of ANSI C as well as many GCC extensions, and a collection
 of sample compiler backends, including a static analyzer also called
 "sparse". Sparse provides a set of annotations designed to convey
 semantic information about types, such as what address space pointers
 point to, or what locks a function acquires or releases.

 This package contains the test-inspect program.
