Where "static" means local to a module the words
"local","module","limit" spring to mind which are far closer to
the intended meaning.  Reusing "static" seems somewhat perverse
IMO.

The use I'm talking about here may be illustrated as follows:

   double
   average( double values[ static 10 ] ){
      double total = 0;
      for(  int i = 0;  i < 10;  i++  ){
         total += values[i];
      }
      return  total / 10;
   }

What word would you suggest to be used in place of 'static'
there?
