[XML-SIG] FW: pyexpat compilation errors - Python 2.0b1

[Walter Underwood]

I'd prefer seeing forward declarations for the functions, then a
declare the array in one place. Then there is no need for null
termination, because you can get the length with this idiom:

  sizeof(handler_info_array)/sizeof(handler_info_array[0])

It's a compile-time constant, so the optimizer has maximum fun.
