Could we please stop with the religion?  You asked why
the script removed (void).  I gave you the reasons.  It
is easy to remove the section in my script that removes
the (void) casting.

I would reather focus on more of the higher level structure.
Should I resubmit the patch without the (void) removal?
I have about 10 more patches that can be shared, that are
more substancial.

I would like to contribute back to you guys since reading
the commits to both DragonFly and FreeBSD usr.bin/make CVS
mentions lots of things taken from NetBSD.
