  // dereferencing the pointer type to be a non-pointer type, and declaring
  // the type as a non-pointer type in the first place. While the declaration
  // itself could technically be well-formed in the case where the type is not
  // an opaque type, it's highly suspicious behavior.
  //
  // POSIX types are a bit different in that it's reasonable to declare a
  // non-pointer variable or data member of the type, but it is not reasonable
  // to dereference a pointer to the type, or declare a parameter of non-pointer
  // type.
  // FIXME: it would be good to make a list that is also user-configurable so
  // that users can add their own elements to the list. However, it may require
  // some extra thought since POSIX types and FILE types are usable in different
  // ways.
