Do you care to explain what's so bad about function declarations?

I don't know about Johannes, but I just see them as unnecessary
burden. If I change some parameters in a function, I'll get a compiler
error and only after that I realise to change the declaration as well.

With public (ie. non-static) functions it's a different issue, because
I know that there's a declaration in the header file. But with static
functions this is not the case.

Seconded. I also see it as totally unnecessary if you structure the code
properly in the first place.
