(They are passed in integer registers, so we can immediately create
integer constants)

We just define that the only reason a Load/Store node can use the
exception edge is a NULL pointer. Misaligned Load/Store is a problem for
low-level languages which don't use exception edges anyway.

We simply always assume that Sel can only return a null pointer if
its input is a null pointer.

this is part of the initiative to move object-orientation support stuff
out of libfirm into liboo

build_edges_walker calls get_block_n on block preds, possibly consing
and hashing a node which init_lh_walker couldn't reach via
irg_walk_anchors.

This fixes a crash I see when compiling Postgres.

This should fix all known bugs, make the code easier to read and more
robust.

We already saved different entity attributes depending on the entity
type and an is_parameter flag. This unifies handling of different entity
types and introduces normal, method, parameter, label and
compound_member entities.

Make sure all types are in the global type list, remove type_walk_prog
which was a strange alternative to type_walk attempting to not miss
types not in the global list.

This should fix problems with uninitialized backends when
be_get_backend_param() wasn't called also calls be_lower_for_target if
the user hasn't done so yet.

get_backend_irg_list - none of our backends uses it and in the future
                       the backend should drive the compilation and not
                       give hints to a generic driver
