Moving dfa.h back to where it was is likely to break OpenVMS. See
this in the gawk ChangeLog:
2013-01-31 Arnold D. Robbins <address@hidden>
* dfa.c: Include "dfa.h" which includes regex.h after limits.h
so that RE_DUP_MAX gets the correct value. Especially needed on
OpenVMS. Thanks to Anders Wallin.
In general, I don't do stuff like that without a reason, and the reason
can usually be found in the ChangeLogs if you look (or check with me).
I would prefer to have dfa.h after the standard includes in dfa.c.
The current code works on Irix and other systems as is...
Thanks though.
Arnold
