This is not very useful, because it prints a message for every value left
on the stack. I'm using the stack often, which makes the output of
stkckeck unreadable.

I'm interested in functions they leave values on the stack after quit
without using the return statement. I'm not interested in such constructs:

do_check();
do_something();
if ( () )
...

or 

() = getbuf_info();
setbuf_info( (), old_buf_flags );

Do you have a tool for this?
