I haven't used lint in about a year -- gcc's -Wall option does a pretty
good job at replacing lint.  However, back when I was using lint, I made a
few changes to /usr/bin/lint (a shell script) to fix a few problems (e.g.
"lint" is supposed to be pre-defined, but wasn't).

If there's enough interest, I'll be happy to post diff's.
