BTW, C++ could take over some of sparse's function:
And the point of that would be? sparse is _fast_ and easy to modify;
g++ is neither.
I wasn't talking about modifying gcc to do the checking, rather using
language features so that the checks would happen during a regular
compile. That would mean we weren't dependent on somebody running sparse
with a configuration that triggers the bug, but those few who compile
the code before submitting the patch would get it automatically checked.
