I actually wonder if FIND_SOURCE_FILES should be taking care of the "t/"
thing. I think "make tags" finds tags in t4051/appended1.c, which is
just silly.

The GNU-ism is fine; we already require GNU make to build.

The patch itself is OK to me, I guess. The interesting part will be
whether people start actually _using_ cppcheck and squelching the false
positives. I'm not sure how I feel about the in-code annotations. I'd
have to see a patch first.
