It is a violation of the C standard to declare a 'static' function 
inside another function and gcc-4.0 enforces this with the following
error message:

libTw_u.c: In function 'Tw_Close':
libTw_u.c:1196: error: invalid storage class for function 'DeleteAllListeners'
libTw_u.c:1224: warning: implicit declaration of function 'DeleteAllListeners'

I should have copied that part of the build log into my bug report.
I apologise for having ommited this.
