Worthy?  That's up to whoever would do the work.  However, it seems 
inconsistent to check so much else and fail to check these most 
frequently-used library structures.  

Is this a good time to argue for making --enable-concept-checks the
default configuration?  The distros can't really take that step 
themselves.
