I can remove it if you feel strongly against it, but I kept it to maintain
consistency with the rest of the file. As I said in the previous series, this is
the style used in the header. All "public" functions (inlined or not) are
declared there with their documentation.

Being inlined is an implementation detail (inlines are defined on a separate
header), but given C's design it leaks through the static declaration.
