I don't think functions for GTK+ signal callbacks need to be
declared static.

I think in the tutorial or whereever you saw them given per
example is that they have ambiguous names such as
static void handle_key()

Which may conflict with other function names, from what I recall, C
declares a local function static to indicate it is to be used in this .c
file only and not allow external calls to link to it (corrections?).
