Maybe it's time to ask the general question:

	Why do we care about non-ansi compilers?

Almost every compiler out there today can handle ansi definitions.
For people engaging in bootstrap/porting, they can always use ansi2knr.

Let's just settle on one standard.  I don't care which,  but I wish to
hell we'd just answer the general question first.

    Modified:    sys/kern  vnode_if.sh
    Log:
    Generate prototypes for VOP functions.  I decided to keep the old-style
    definitions even though the functions are inline.  If vnode_if.h was
    compiled by a non-ANSI compiler, then `inline' would be defined away,
    so vnode_if.h might compile correctly.
