Splint is great (Score:2, Interesting)

I've been using Splint and it's predecessor LCLint for years. I've always wanted to get involved in special annotations to catch improper usage of abstractions, but hadn't gotten around to it.

It would be really cool to come up with a bunch of XS-specific annotations and augment extensions and perl itself with Splint. Probably improve things greatly.

This is way beyond my poor powers, at this point.

  This is a really cool idea - I would imagine that even commenting the Perl source alone with Splint annotations would be useful, especially for those who like to "experiment". Something else for me to add to the TODO list for when I have some free time ...
