Yeah, that was what I was trying to impose. Functions that
semantically make better sense in the place where they're called from.
I filtered functions that were used once but would not make much sense
to move (for instance, the init functions).

How about this. Below is the list of functions that I took out of
tree.h.  They are either not used or used only once, in which case I
moved them (and their private transitive closure) over to the file
that uses them.  There are more, but these are the ones that I
originally considered to be too specific to the user file to be
globally exposed.  Which ones would you folks keep global?

I have marked some that we may decide to keep extern and one, which I
would not mind to not move at all.  I also marked the functions I
removed and the ones that I just made private to their definition
file:

Moved to builtins.c:
    more_const_call_expr_args_p
    expand_stack_restore
    expand_stack_save

Moved to cfgexpand.c:
    expand_main_function
    stack_protect_prologue
    expand_asm_stmt
    expand_computed_goto
    expand_goto
    expand_return

Moved to cgraphclones.c:
    build_function_decl_skip_args

Moved to explow.c:
    tree_expr_size (maybe keep extern?)

Moved to expr.c:
    fields_length

Moved to fold-const.c:
    size_low_cst

Moved to gimple-fold.c:
    truth_type_for (maybe keep extern?)

Moved to symtab.c:
    decl_assembler_name_hash
    decl_assembler_name_equal

Moved to trans-mem.c:
    is_tm_safe_or_pure

Moved to tree-eh.c:
    in_array_bounds_p
    range_in_array_bounds_p

Moved to tree-ssa-dom.c:
    iterative_hash_exprs_commutative

Moved to tree-ssa-math-opts.c:
    widest_int_cst_value (maybe keep extern?)

Moved to tree-vrp.c:
    fold_unary_to_constant (?)

Moved to cp/call.c
    ctor_to_vec

Moved to cp/decl.c:
    supports_one_only
    chain_member

Moved to java/class.c:
    build_method_type

Removed (not used anywhere)
    build_type_no_quals
    omp_remove_redundant_declare_simd_attrs
    fold_build3_initializer_loc
    real_twop
    print_vec_tree
    list_equal_p
    ssa_name_nonnegative_p
    addr_expr_of_non_mem_decl_p
    save_vtable_map_decl

Made static (only used in its defining file)
    stabilize_reference_1
    tree_expr_nonzero_p
    tree_invalid_nonnegative_warnv_p
    tree_expr_nonzero_warnv_p
    fold_builtin_snprintf_chk
    validate_arglist
    simple_cst_list_equal
    lookup_scoped_attribute_spec
    get_attribute_namespace
    fini_object_sizes


Thanks.  Diego.
