During an exp-run for llvm 13 (see bug 258209), it turned out that both
chinese/bitchx and irc/bitchx fail to build with clang 13 [1]:

cc: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
This is because several functions in source/expr2.c are marked __inline,
without either static or extern keyword. The compiler then has to assume
the function is also externally available.
Fix this by marking the affected functions static.
