    longDescription = ''
      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.
