Yes.

Right.  But that's not how I ended up doing it since it wasn't
possible to specify a custom indent.pro file from a command line
switch.

Instead, I put the list of types into the script.  Each time indent
gets called, a suitable set of -T switches are passed directly to
indent.  These types were generated by check-decls.  (Recall that
check-decls needs to find all of the types in order to create typedefs
for a C-program which checks the output of fix-decls.)

Going forward, someone (me perhaps) should add the appropriate command
line switch to indent so that we can specify a custom indent.pro file
for gdb instead of picking up the users .indent.pro.  We'll also need
a way of keeping gdb's indent.pro file current.
