FWIW I have this patch lingering about that I wrote months ago, to check
for header problems (not C++ stuff, just things like forgetting to
include some necessary header in some other header). Since it needs a
lot of polish (needs to ignore certain headers, and avoid leave
lingering files around), I didn't commit it; and I haven't updated it to
the new Make recursive stuff, either. Maybe someone else knows what to
do with it, though.
