Prototype Generation With Typedef'd Types #298
Description
When the Arduino IDE attempts to generate the prototypes for a function where the types that are a part of that prototype are defined in a header file, the IDE does not always include the header file defining the type before the generated prototype is emitted to the file that is passed into G++.

Workaround: Including all header files into the main INO fixes the problem, but that should not be required.
