Usually, splint does not use system headers for two reasons:

(1) The system headers are not intended to be parse-able by compilers
    other than the system one (so they often use proprietary
    extensions).

(2) Splint works best on annotated source. The *.lcd libraries used by
    splint instead of the system headers are created from annotated
    headers (see e.g. lib/unix.h).


You might use the '+skipsysheaders' and '-sysdirs /usr/include' flags
to tell splint which are the system headers to skip.
