We could add a "foo" driver to the LINT generated by this script with
notification that it was generated and all changes should be placed to

I guess I can't help but wonder if a script is necessarily better than a
well-commented template.

I still can remeber that, when the world and I were younger, I used to
study FreeBSD examples and sources for any release I had on hand at the
moment. There still are plenty of places on the globe where off-line is
the normal state of being, so we should provide good reference material
for developers on our release CD's, to my mind. This also warrants MFC of
fixes to source comments as long as they help to understand the code. Of
course, all this is just my private opinion.
In general, I think we're better served by providing skeleton or stub
implementations of code that are part of the base source tree (and compiled
as part of it) than providing scripts and detached sample source code. The
reason is that any code not attached to the tree almost instantly rots into
uselessness.
