No, we can't declare the functions with a function pointer. At least I don't see any obvious way to do that without incurring multiple declarations compile error. So I'll leave it as forward declarations. Of course, the other alternative is to put the array below the functions and make them static, to avoid forward declarations, but I think it's much clearer the way it is now.

Thanks,
Anatoly
