+
+Hi.
+This patch adds the missing calls to check_typedef
+and adds a testcase to show the issue.
+
+The PR is not closeable yet, but the remaining issues are more cleanups
+than actual bug fixes.
+
+Regression tested on amd64-linux.
+
+I will check this in in a few days if there are no objections.
+
+[The multiple calls to check_typedef (value_type (*argp)) are
+bothersome, but the code is simpler this way, and I expect
+resolving the rest of the issues in 15695 to potentially change this
+code significantly.]
