No, TREE_STATIC means it's static-storage-duration.  If I understand
properly.  Or perhaps now that DECL_THREAD_LOCAL exists, it means
thread-or-static.  In either case, I'd think TREE_STATIC would have
to always be set for a function.

Seems easy enough to distinguish declaration from definition based on 
whether the decl is initialized.

Hum.  So it does.
