I agree with Vladimir Oltean.

I prefer to the way of easy maintaining.
I don't understand the advantage which you discuss.
However, if I am not familiar with the code, this patch
would let me take more time to find out the declarations
of these functions. This make it harder to trace the code.

Hayes
