The "ni_stc.h" header is also included by "ni_mio_cs.c" which doesn't 
need `range_ni_E_ao_ext` (admittedly, it was already pulling in a 
"tentative" definition of the variable).

Thinking about it, I think it's probably better to move 
`range_ni_E_ao_ext` from "ni_mio_common.c" into *both* "ni_atmio.c" and 
"ni_pcimio.c" (I think we can live with the small amount of 
duplication), and to remove the tentative definition from "ni_stc.h".
