In my opinion, this is the wrong fix.  Please just add:

  if (newdecl == olddecl)
    return 1;

at the top of decls_match.  That avoids obscuring the purpose of the
code and introducing new functions, while still avoiding the needless
calls to `compparms', and will make all other callers of decls_match
go faster as well.

If you're worried about function call overhead, don't be.  But, if
profiling shows that we should be later, we can always rename
decls_match to decls_match_f and #define decls_match to check identity
before calling the function.
