That is a possible way. But unfortunately Jessie does not work so well 
in multi-projects mode. You can try to call the following function 
before computing the AST of the initial project (and thus at least 
before calling File.create_project_from_visitor).

let prepare_jessie () =
   Kernel.SimplifyCfg.on ();
   Kernel.KeepSwitch.on ();
   Kernel.Constfold.on ();
   Kernel.PreprocessAnnot.on ();
   Cabs2cil.setDoTransformWhile ();
   Cabs2cil.setDoAlternateConditional ()

Jessie is happy now in simple cases, but I provide no guarantee that it 
is enough in all situations...
