I don't see why.

Go into a .c file, remove all the prototypes for extern things and
put them into an appropriate .h file.  Remove all other prototypes
for those same things from other .c files.

Submit patch.

Repeat for another .c file.


This is _much_ easier to understand and verify than a jumbo patch.
