Not that it's required (because there's a LOT of those), but if you will, I'd have a hint. If you modify bracket-spacing.pl with diff that follows, you can then run (because by default bracket-spacing.pl runs only on .c files):
git ls-files | grep '\.[hc]$' | xargs build-aux/bracket-spacing.pl
And you'll have a rough idea. I'm sure there are many false positives and true negatives, so syntax-check cannot be probably created out of this.
diff --git i/build-aux/bracket-spacing.pl w/build-aux/bracket-spacing.pl index e4ae8f0..cda5f2a 100755 --- i/build-aux/bracket-spacing.pl +++ w/build-aux/bracket-spacing.pl @@ -155,6 +155,13 @@ foreach my $file (@ARGV) { $ret = 1; last; } + + while ($data =~ /^[a-zA-Z _]*\* [a-zA-Z]/) { + print "$file:$.: $line"; + $ret = 1; + last; + } + } close FILE; } --

ummm - that's a bit beyond the scope of what I was thinking - seems to grab too many comments too. John
