Whenever I use things like printf with lint, I define things like:

	#define	Printf	(void) printf
	#define	Fputs	(void) fputs

		/* ... */

	Printf("Hello World!\n");

Which translates to:

	(void) printf("Hello World!\n");

Thus lint is kept happy, and my program is not cluttered up with casts to void.
