:Please!  I already have a prototype in works.  I'm sure there are other
:things for people to work on.

    sys/cdefs.h ?  I think it's perfect, lets use it... I don't understand
    why you haven't instrumented all the library source files already,
    though, or at least more then have been, or asked people to help out
    instrumenting it.  Barely 33 files use RCSID and it's been in the tree
    for almost half a year!  And nobody seems to know it exists except a
    handful of people.  The stuff is only so much fluff if it isn't used.
