-Define staticforward and statichere for source compatibility with old
-C extensions.
-
-The staticforward define was needed to support certain broken C
-compilers (notably SCO ODT 3.0, perhaps early AIX as well) botched the
-static keyword when it was used with a forward declaration of a static
-initialized structure.  Standard C allows the forward declaration with
-static, and we've decided to stop catering to broken C compilers.
-(In fact, we expect that the compilers are all fixed eight years later.)
