Using vpi/sys_time.c as an example, we'd end up with

/* Declare a prototype first, to avoid warnings with some strict C compiler
 * options.  This prototype conforms to the VPI plugin standard, and is
 * therefore consistent with the usage in Icarus' sys_table.c. */
void sys_time_register(void);
void sys_time_register(void)
{
	s_vpi_systf_data tf_data;
	.
	.

Or is that too verbose?

I'd like to hear from Steve W. on this topic.
