The `use-hard-newlines' mode is defined in ``paragraphs.el'' as

(define-minor-mode use-hard-newlines
  ...

So, the variable `use-hard-newlines' is defined by evaluating the
forms returned by calling macro `define-minor-mode'.  I know
if the forms like

(defvar var val "doc")

are evaluated many times, `val' will not take effect except for the
first time, but can we just define the variable `use-hard-newlines'
in buffer.c without changing the definition of `use-hard-newlines'
that defined with `define-minor-mode'?
