The file does claim to do bad things in a comment:

% /* Data for exclusion/inclusion handling: defined in matching.c */
% struct matching;
% struct links_entry;
% struct archive_dir_entry;

Contrary to the comment, there is no data definition or even data
declaration here,  There are only bogus unsorted forward declarations
here.  These style bugs are not new; they were in rev.1.1.
