Actually, you might be better off with just

	sparse $(ALL_CFLAGS) $(SPARSE_FLAGS) *.c

these days. It will cause some interesting warnings (it actually 
cross-checks things, and is unhappy about multiple "main()" declarations 
with different types ;), but especially with eventual libification it 
might even be a good idea to try to avoid global functions with the same 
names in different programs ("main", of course, is special, sparse is 
just too stupid to know).
