xsubpp is kind of picky about indentation and blank lines sometimes. When
things start in the left margin of an .XS file, xsubpp often thinks they're
starting a new function definition, and if they're not it gets confused.
Side effect of not having to actually *have* a function body.
Short answer--don't do that. Indent everything in a function at least one
space.
