... 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...
