Definitily yes. I did this for a couple of packages already, but there are certainly more "to come" like postgresql. Of course, if someone wants to be really cool, he takes a source mirror, extracts all files and checks for usage of errno and inclusion of errno.h, but this will not catch all and give some bogus reports. Might be useful as a base to work from, though. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
