It doesn't make any sense to me, except as a workaround for an HPUX
compiler bug, but I guess I can't do any harm...?
Summary:
1. Explicitly initialize static variables, even though the standard
requires this to happen automatically;
2. Move static vars from function scope to file scope, even though
they are only used in the function.
Curiously, the only online reference I can find for this is an emacs
bug report from 1993, about what looks like the same problem with a
HPUX compiler compiling etags.
