running sparse (from Christopher's tree) on linux-2.6/kernel/cred.c
(as of next-20090318, problem may appeared earlier, I have not tried
yet) causes a segfault at evaluate.c:341:
if (type->type == SYM_NODE)
type = type->ctype.base_type;
if (type->type == SYM_TYPEOF) { <======== SEGFAULT (type == NULL)
type = evaluate_expression(type->initializer);
if (type->type == SYM_NODE)
type = type->ctype.base_type;
}
the complete command line:

using "git bisect" i narrowed to problem down to:
[db31fd91f8231110ce8d8d48ce402f8cad068e44] Fix handling of ident-less
declarations
Does that help? Should I provide any further information?
Best,
