Apparently that sort of whistling is also used for communication, at least if Wikipedia is to be believed [0] (or if I could track down the source, which I don’t feel like doing just right now):
> Sochiapam Chinantec has three different words for whistle-speech: sie³ for whistling with the tongue against the alveolar ridge, jui̵³² for bilabial whistling, and juo² for finger-in-the-mouth whistling. These are used for communication over varying distances.
