[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

1. Emacs -q t.m
2. Move point to the first '-'
3. M-: (c-at-expression-start-p)
4. Move point to the second '-'
5. M-: (c-at-expression-start-p)

step 3 return nil but step 5 returns non-nil. It appears that every
first method declaration fails c-at-expression-start-p.

I've marked c-at-expression-start-p as obsolete.  I've got rid of a
formerly obsolete function entirely (might as well).
c-at-statement-start-p is actually used quite a bit in CC Mode, so it
stays.  ;-)
