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.
