Two issues. You don't need to declare spiral in dwm.h, it should
be fine to declare it static in layout.c just before tile().

Second, this layout seems to be broken if you run a lot of
windows, then there is no fallback to prevent 0-pixel window
heights/widths (in tile layout all stacked windows will be
maximized, same if you increase NMASTER to something
insane).
