Well, that assumes that one compiles all files with the checking option. I like
the idea better to have a global (static, SAVE) derived-type (struct) variable
which contains the arguments and a function pointer. If loc(current function)
== loc(function pointer) then the argument checking is done - else it is for a
different function and no checking is done.
