I would love to do that, but objdump --stabs does not work for me like
find_typedefs says it should. I only get something like:
$ objdump --stabs ../backend/postgres
../backend/postgres: file format elf64-x86-64
$ objdump --version

I don't know how to make it output the symbol names like it seems to do
for you.
Having the typedef list in the script itself seems like a barrier for
other people to contribute to this thing. I wonder if that can be
changed so that the typedef is on a separate list.
(Why are we still distributing pgjindent anyway?)
I am also wondering if current GNU indent is now better suited to the
task. Perhaps the bugs that it had on earlier versions have since been
fixed? I remember checking the source code size a couple of years ago
and it had grown by an order of magnitude or something like that.
