Statements A, B, and C are all true. However, they are also
all unrelated. You can't infer anything at all just by writing
them side by side as you have done.
The crucial point is that there should be exactly one location
from which all of __register_frame_info, __deregister_frame_info,
and __frame_state_for are resolved.
If they are not all resolved from the same location, then the
implementation of __frame_state_for will not have all the info
it needs, and you'll fail.
If they are all resolved from the same location, then IT DOES NOT
MATTER ONE IOTA what the implementation of these functions are.
They only have to work with one another. Together they are a black
box whence you put stuff in on the __register_frame_info side and
get stuff out on the __frame_state_for side.
