Hello Masami,
Thank you for spending time to test this work.

Indeed, this point will be fixed in the next version.
Don't know why I assumed the build directory needed to be as a subdirectory
into the source tree.

Yes, it can be done.
My idea would, rather than divide kas_alias into two scripts, to make it a
two actions script:
in_tree: to do the work kas_alias is already doing, and a new action,
out_of_tree: to add the new logic needed for out of tree modules.
As you suggested, the in_tree action will leave a file, I was thinking of
a JSON file, with the symbol frequencies, and the other action,
out_of_tree will use the file to produce the aliases.
