6 char externs and the ANSI standard

[Geoff Kuenning]

AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

We have hashed, rehashed, and rerehashed (no, re*hashed) this subject for
months now.  The consensus appeared in the first week:  about 80% of the
votes are for no limitations;  20% for 6-chars.

So alright already!  We all agree;  let's make sure the ANSI committee knows
and move on to something else.  I wouldn't be surprised to learn they've
already caved in to the overwhelming public opinion.
