no way to look up a struct by tag

[davidmalcolm]

I could not find a way to look up a structure type by tag.
E.g., I wanted to look up 'struct buffer'.
I could do this by introducing typedefs, but I'd rather
not have to do that.

(oops; added this to ticket #26 by mistake)

I added an example of extracting them in bd03e3b

However, it looks like gcc.Block.vars is misnamed; it corresponds to:
{{{
#define BLOCK_VARS(NODE) (BLOCK_CHECK (NODE)->block.vars)
}}}
from tree.h, but this seems to contain all declarations, not just variables (but see ticket #21).

I'm inclined to rename it to "decls" - does this sound sane?

Thanks for adding the example.

I think renaming this attribute would be fine.
