Re: [9fans] Function args not checked

As an aside, when you declare prototypes I find it is best to
only give the types of the parameters and not declare identifiers,
e.g.
	extern Elem mkoid(Ints *); // asn1.h
rather than
	extern Elem mkoid(Ints *oid); // asn1.h
This prevents confusion in environments where there is overuse
of the pre-processor and the identifier gets substituted.
