If the modules ship with XEmacs, we unconditionally add an object type
constant symbol to enum lrecord_type, and then the .c file for that
object type should be able to do DEFINE/DECLARE/INIT whether it is
modulated or not.
It's only a problem for object types defined in C code not shipping
with XEmacs. Steve's postgres code should work fine.
