No, I haven't seen that.

Can you tell me what git tree you're working on?
Also, can you use the scripts/checkpatch from -next
tag next-20140711

My system has:

$ perl --version 

This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 2 (v5.18.2) built for 
i686-linux-gnu-thread-multi-64int
(with 41 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)

Complete documentation for Perl, including FAQ lists, should be found on
this system using "man perl" or "perldoc perl".  If you have access to the
Internet, point your browser at http://www.perl.org/, the Perl Home Page.

and using that:

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --strict 
drivers/staging/lustre/include/linux/lnet/api.h --types=c99_comments
total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 0 checks, 220 lines checked

NOTE: Used message types: C99_COMMENTS

drivers/staging/lustre/include/linux/lnet/api.h has no obvious style problems 
and is ready for submission.
