> CC-mode currently defines various non-CC-mode variables and functions
> with dummy values, as a way to avoid byte-compiler warnings when using
> those external vars/functions.

> Since this is dangerous business, CC-mode has to be extra careful to
> undo such settings when they're not needed any more.

> It might have made sense back in the days when the byte-compiler did not
> offer built-in ways to silence those warnings, but nowadays we can
> do better.

> Any objections to the patch below (which also removes the unused
> cc-bytecomp-put, while we're at it)?

> 	(cc-bytecomp-defun): Use just (declare-function <foo>) when that is
> 	known to silence the byte-compiler warnings.
> 	(cc-bytecomp-boundp, cc-bytecomp-fboundp): Change accordingly.
> 	(cc-bytecomp-put): Remove, unused.
> 	(cc-bytecomp-original-properties): Remove var.
> 	(cc-bytecomp-setup-environment, cc-bytecomp-restore-environment):
> 	Don't use cc-bytecomp-original-properties any more.
