I approve this.  Can someone please install this patch?  I don't
have my keys here.

Sorry.  There seems to be a bug in ansidecl.h not defining DEFUN
here, but we shouldn't use DEFUN anyway.

Disclaimer: I thought ansidecl.c would take care of that strange
DEFUN, and that Dan had scrutinized it for sanity for GCC.  And
"make all && make check" in libiberty found nothing bad on the
ix86 gnu system I used.
