Fair enough - I've found it convient in the past to be able to use the
function typedef for prototypes of the functions too.

Will do

Actually my only test code is Kodi (xbmc) on Pi which is already using
it. The patch is simple enough that I didn't feel the need for a
separate test. I can put something together if required though.
