You use the `-T' option.  `-T' can be specified more than once, and all 
names specified are used.  For example, if your program contains

      typedef unsigned long CODE_ADDR;
      typedef enum {red, blue, green} COLOR;

you would use the options `-T CODE_ADDR -T COLOR'.

Actually, you only need that for types that are used in arguments and 
declared in .h files (as opposed to the same .c file).  Example:

    typedef struct color color;
    void f(color* p)

works, but if you remove the typedef you get

    void f (color * p)
