The problem is not that it is initialized to a non-NULL value.
If we were to detect multiple declarations in a line. we would
search for a comma (separator), right? In the case I mentioned,
the comma inside the function has to be avoided by the rule.
Syntax-wise, our macro signatures follow the ones of a function, i.e. you also
have parentheses. If we're ever going to create a syntax-check rule for that
it won't be as simple as matching commas, you'd use more context for such a
regex, for the reasons you've mentioned. Therefore, the example you provided
would never be affected by such a rule.
