Actually, it would.  But when I tried to use it in our build,
I quickly hit a problem, because the headers we include might not
have strict prototypes.  For instance, readline defines:

    typedef int Function ();
    typedef void VFunction ();
    typedef char *CPFunction ();
    typedef char **CPPFunction ();

So, unless there is a way to say check strict-prototyping certain
files only, it's going to be tough to use :-(.
