Hi Conrad,

>   libmd: Work around C++'s inability to understand C

So C++ doesn't support using 'static' within array types, right? What
I personally dislike about this specific change:

- Including <sys/md5.h> directly still doesn't work.
- If <sys/md5.h> is ever going to include a 'static inline' function,
the static keyword would also be stripped off.

Would it make sense to come up with a macro in <sys/cdefs.h> to deal with this?

#if defined(__cplusplus) || defined(ancient compiler)
#define __minimum_size(n) n
#else
#define __minimum_size(n) static (n)
#endif

That way we can annotate this everwhere we'd want, without needing to
care about compiler versions, languages, etc.
