That's for sure:

[me@nb linux-2.6.9]$ find . -name "*.[ch]" | xargs egrep -H -n '^[[:space:]]+if\(' | \
> tee if_should_be_followed_by_space | wc -l
18991


And my favorite pet peeve:

[me@nb linux-2.6.9]$ find . -name "*.[ch]" | \
> xargs egrep -H -n '^[[:space:]]+return[[:space:]]*\([^)]+\);' | \
> tee return_is_not_a_function | wc -l
9867

There are a lot more than that but I could find no obvious way of including
"return(parenthesized expr)" while excluding "return (typecast)(expr)".
