I disagree -- I added redundant forward declarations here so I wouldn't
have to go digging through the 150LOC definition of INTERVAL_TREE_DEFINE
to figure out what helper functions were actually being defined by the
macro.  They'll trigger compiler errors if the definition of
INTERVAL_TREE_DEFINE ever drifts away from my understanding of it at the
time I wrote the code.
