Then please file bugs or (better yet) submit patches. 

It's not always clear-cut what these functions should do. For example, consider:

	int f(), g();

Where is the start of f() and the start of g()? They probably shouldn't overlap, but that means either leaving the decl-specifier-seq out of both of them or only placing the decl-specifier-seq only on f(), both of which are weird.
