You can do style checks if you wish.

Meanwhile RPM is/was permeated with false positives like
```
    foo = _free(foo);
```
which is my own personal idiolect of C: wipe oy the pointer when you free the memory.

Huge PITA handling in Coverity: huge number of warnings about "set but unused pointer". Well yeah, I know, I wrote that code.

Have fun! Static analysis change the way I code in really complex ways: RPM was written with years of "static analysis" fixes (but with ,y own peculiar idiolect style).
