Well, step one was finding a way to get a more comprehensive typedef
list. Now we have some sort of mechanism for doing that, we can look at
regularly pulling the list into the source, I guess. Maybe then we could
look at either regular runs or even making it a part of a commit to the
central repo, if we trust it enough. That would have the advantage of
avoiding any later merge problems.

After the release, we can play around some more.
