What I was trying to say is that if the __RCSID and __COPYRIGHT macros
lived *below* the include list rather than above it, the inclusion of
"config.h" could easily redefine these, and we wouldn't even need to
explicitly include <sys/cdefs> at all.  We don't need another .h file.

However, our style currently mandates that the file be structured as:

#include <sys/cdefs.h>
__RCSID()
#include <everything_else>
