The right default for opic0ids in CC Mode is nil.  Please believe me on
this point.

There is already an exceptionally clever c-beginning-of-defun function.
Martin Stjernholm put a _lot_ of work into it.  It depends essentially on
beginning-of-defun working "correctly" (i.e. syntactically) when opic0ids
is set to nil.

Chong, especially: Please load xdisp.c with the following patch, and tell
me whether or not its slowness is still a problem.

Everybody: this patch is quite intricate, so could you please review it
and tell me if you find any bugs.

        * emacs-lisp/lisp.el (beginning-of-defun-raw): Optimise (for
        speed) the case when open-paren-in-column-0-is-defun-start is nil.
        Based on code by Martin Rudalics.
