The results are below.  Except in the first case, none are pointer types.
The first case looks very intentional, although if the intention is
needed, perhaps the types should be listed differently.

I was surprised not to get more results.  Maybe there is not enough type
information.  I did use --all-includes but not --recursive-includes, ie
only explicitly mentioned include files are taken into account.

My rule doesn't consider implicit casts like in your example.  I can try
that.
