That's good. I think it is ok to desupport versions older than that. So what about USG systems. There is no problem with USG 5.4. Are the USG 5.3 derivatives totally gone now? However, given this information I looked for non-file scope statics in src/*.c. I think there are only a handful that aren't definitely in Windows, Mac, or VMS specific code: alloca.c find_stack_direction fringe.c init_fringe_bitmap gtkutil.c menu_grab_callback, xg_separator_p image.c our_memory_fill_input_buffer, gif_load xselect.c x_reply_selection_request I think we may as well fix the last four, unless that is hard. Can you fix them? alloca.c is not an issue. It checks for #define static and gives an error. It is also surely obsolete since 15 years ago; let's delete it and its whole support mechanism in Emacs 23.
