Here is part of the answer:

jbook2:d jay$ grep -i chain p* | grep DEF
patch-apple-gcc-4.0.x:+ DEFTREECODE (STATIC_CHAIN_EXPR, "static_chain_expr", tcc_expression, 1)
patch-apple-gcc-4.0.x:+ DEFTREECODE (STATIC_CHAIN_DECL, "static_chain_decl", tcc_expression, 0)
patch-gcc-4.0.x:+ DEFTREECODE (STATIC_CHAIN_EXPR, "static_chain_expr", tcc_expression, 1)
patch-gcc-4.0.x:+ DEFTREECODE (STATIC_CHAIN_DECL, "static_chain_decl", tcc_expression, 0)
patch-gcc-4.1.x:+ DEFTREECODE (STATIC_CHAIN_EXPR, "static_chain_expr", tcc_expression, 1)
patch-gcc-4.1.x:+ DEFTREECODE (STATIC_CHAIN_DECL, "static_chain_decl", tcc_expression, 0)
