inside? within?

but, more seriously, I don't think this is a big deal.
In C, "extern" is pretty pliable - I tend to think of it
as meaning "not my problem, let the linker sort it out".
I don't think people would have a big problem with 
this new use of "extern".  It says clearly enough 
that you need to look elsewhere for the full story.

Read my lips: no new syntaxes :-)
