Well, interesting.
Variables are being declared *after* intial function entrance and
not part of a loop statement of some kind.
This will break a lot of compilers and is not ANSIC compliant if
I remember my ANSIC.
No, C99 dropped that requirement and defines block items as
declarations or statements without constraining their order.
6.8.2 Compound statement Syntax compound-statement: {
block-item-list#opt } block-item-list: block-item block-item-list
block-item block-item: declaration statement
That came after C++ and Java proved how functions are much more
readable if variables are defined when they are used, possibly
initializing them.
That breaks vanilla C compilers, though. Should we care
FreeBSD 4.11 is EOL at the end of this month and FreeBSD 5+ all use
gcc 3 as the base compiler. But I'm not sure about the situation in
regards to other *BSD's and various Linux-distro's.
