Nit: the externs are superfluous. AFAIU the tribal knowledge (or is it
documented?), we don't add them even if other declarations around have them,
but we don't also actively remove them unless the lines are touched for
other reasons. So the declarations are inconsistent but slowly move towards
no externs.
