This idea is quite interesting; but when doing kernel development, you
are even stronger dependent on the C header files, than at doing normal
development. How do you want to handle kernel structures, which don't
only depend on the kernel version, but even its configuration? Perhaps
some tweaking of h2pas will do the trick...?
