We should probably nuke the current version of src/tools/find_typedef
altogether in favor of copying the current buildfarm code for that.
We know that the buildfarm's version works, whereas I'm not real sure
that src/tools/find_typedef is being used in anger by anyone.  Also,
we're long past the point where developers can avoid having Perl
installed.

Ideally, the buildfarm client would then start to use find_typedef
from the tree rather than have its own copy, both to reduce
duplication and to ensure that the in-tree copy keeps working.
