Yes, tool support definitely helps here. I was going to suggest Cython
(also for obvious reasons), where the code that the OP posted would look
like this:

  def RegisterClass(class_decl):
      an = type(class_decl)()
      print(an.description())
      return 0

Clearly substantially simpler than the posted C code (and certainly safer,
faster and more correct) - although that doesn't really help me much with
understanding what the intention of this code is, looks rather weird...
