... which does not work at all for the example that has started
that thread:

typedef struct {
        uid_t val;
} kuid_t;

Arithmetics is not an option for existing uses.  , and ?: would be OK, but
they are even worse than return type - at least that got fixed in 8.4.

As for the -Wignored-qualifiers...  Sure, that's included into -Wextra, along
with many other insanities - -Wunused-parameter, for example.  Grep for
-Wextra and you'll see...
