Several allegedly ANSI conforming compilers differ in how
static functions are to be specified in prototypes.

If I have a static function defined in a file, must the 
prototype also have the word static?  My reading of the
standard is that the word static is forbidden in block
scope declarations, but gnu C requires it.

If the word static is forbidden, is this really invalid:

	void f(void)
	{
	  static void g(void);
	  . . .
	  g();
	}

Is this correct:

	void f(void)
	{
	  void g(void);
	  . . .
	  g();
	}

Or is this required:

	static void g(void);

	void f(void)
	{
	  . . .
	  g();
	}

All assuming the file later contains a definition of g:

	static void g(void)
	{
	  . . .
	}
