That patch forgot to declare the functions without the representation
labels, thus breaking the API: You won't be able to compile a program
omitting rl.  I've added the two signatures.  This way, binary
compatibility should be preserved.

Don't worry.  I've applied your original patch with rl = 0 to HEAD and the
modified patch with the added signatures to the 1.3 branch.  This way, the
more natural solution will eventually be there when GiNaC-1.4 comes out
while a simple recompile of applications should suffice, since the
programming interface is the same.  Oh, you'll know when 1.4 is out when
you see a grand announcemnt.  ;-)
