	It was "reserved" so that multiple entry points to a single
routine could be added to the language later, a la PL/I. For example:

void func1(a)
int a;
{
	int b;

	b = f(a);
	/* Do some stuff */
entry func2(a, b)
	/* Do some more stuff */
	return;
}

	Or anyway something like that. The idea is to allow related
routines to shre code more efficiently. The feature will probably
never be implemented though, so it is probably just of historical
interest.
