Tangentially, CppCheck [1] has support for custom checks using

that implementing the three check scripts (checkhf, checkAPIs,
checkfiltername) as CppCheck plugins would be a major win, primarily
because we'd get real C grammar parsing for free.


It's certainly the case that all the check functionality would be better done in some tool which handles C (and which runs the source thru the pre-processor, etc).

I'll have to look at CppCheck.

At one point I thought about looking at CLang to see if it were reasonably easy to add custom checking as needed but I never pursued matters further.
