Is there a tool to create a call graph from a Julia function?

Cthulhu should be calculating the static call graph here, [https://github.com/JuliaDebug/Cthulhu.jl/blob/43f52ca05822eed533b0c9c6d85e1e44ebeb1e5a/src/codeview.jl#L342](https://github.com/JuliaDebug/Cthulhu.jl/blob/43f52ca05822eed533b0c9c6d85e1e44ebeb1e5a/src/codeview.jl#L342).  
Not aware of a nice way to do this though.
