- commenting on myself a bit:  It Would Be Nice if gcc had an option similar
to -aux-info to dump typedefs and struct/union/enum names; then I could
easily add them to the check.  It would also be nice if '-aux-info -' sent
the dump to stdout.

And not gamma()?  Ok, I'll switch that.  Is the latest draft available
anywhere?

Ok.  Thanks for the input.
