Would this be better written as:
my $prototype_end = qr{\([^\(\{]*\)}
And now that I look at the whole thing, doesn't this fail to parse
a function declared as:
int f(void (*g)(long));
(that is, f takes a single argument, which is a pointer to a function
which takes a long argument and returns void)
Still, I don't think this was parsed correctly before, so it's not an
argument against this patch, just something to take care of later.
