----------
In a non-reentrant scanner, the prototypes for these functions are
(correctly) suppressed, but the functions themselves are (incorrectly)
not - so a bunch of functions which are never referenced and which
have no prototypes turn up in the output. For some reason I can't
fathom, a handful of the functions in that region of flex.skl (around
line 2420 and onwards) are within an %if-reentrant, but the ones
listed above are not.

tags 189782 +upstream, wontfix
thanks
Hi,
Upstream is pretty adamant about not fixing this. I do not
believe that the (minor) benefits of this change are worth diverging
from upstream on this issue.
