There is another question.  In many cases we just specify types for the
builtin arguments, in other cases types and names with @var{name} syntax,
and in other case with just name.

@defbuiltin{int __builtin_fpclassify (int, int, int, int, int, ...)}
vs.
@defbuiltin{size_t __builtin_object_size (const void * @var{ptr}, int 
@var{type})}
vs.
@defbuiltinx{bool __builtin_umull_overflow (unsigned long int a, unsigned long 
int b, unsigned long int *res)}
and in some cases even just name the arguments and don't specify type:
@defbuiltin{void __builtin_clear_padding (@var{ptr})}
@defbuiltin{@var{type} __builtin_choose_expr (@var{const_exp}, @var{exp1}, 
@var{exp2})}

Shall we tweak that somehow?  If the argument names are unimportant, perhaps
it is fine to leave that out, but shouldn't we always use @var{...} around
the parameter names when specified?
And avoid leaving out the types, use something like
__builtin_clear_padding (@var{type} *@var{ptr})
or
__builtin_choose_expr (@var{type1} @var{const_exp}, @var{type2} @var{exp1}, 
@var{type3} @var{exp2})
?
