Ah, thanks for clarification.  One way of operation would be to
generate the graph during the compilation step even with LTO though
it then becomes much less precise.  Note that during LTRANS you
could get at the original file via the DECL_SOURCE_LOCATION of
the TRANSLATION_UNIT_DECL each function is ultimately rooted in
so there's the vague possibility to annotate the graph accordingly
to help combining the output.  Additional arguments to
-fcallgraph-info might be used to direct the output to a specific
directory as well.

Richard.
