Not if it is declared static. Any function declared static is only
visible in the file where it is defined. Since it cannot be declared
globally it is not declared in liberty.h or gnugo.h.

A description of the functions is contained in the source
just before the function. Note that the static function
influence_evaluate_position() in addition to returning a
float also returns some information through the
parameters power and game_status.
