That looks OK to me, but if check.pl is going to modify the source,
it would be nice for it to print out the changes (e.g. echoing
the old and new lines, or renaming the old version and running diff)
and ask the user if they still want to commit.
The regexp substitions there do not look entirely 100% fool-proof.
