After the recent discussion about make check I decided to give it a try
and see what happens.

I installed sparse, took a look at the source and it appears to want
something along the following lines for a intel processor:

-D__LITTLE_ENDIAN__ -D__i386__=1

I then type 'make check' and get about 30 seconds of errors printing out
for kerberos headers.

The errors look a lot like this:

/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1166:18: error: got *
/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1167:18: error: Expected ; at end of
declaration
/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1167:18: error: got *
/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1168:20: error: Expected ; at end of

/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1168:20: error: got *
/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1169:1: error: Expected ; end of type
declaration
/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1169:1: error: got }
/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1173:17: error: expected ; at end of
declaration
/usr/include/krb5/krb5.h:1173:17: error: Expected } at end of
struct-union-enum-specifier

What is the proper way to run sparse on the git sources ?
