For example, if I put it in gegl-sampler-yafr.c without otherwise changing the make files, the code compiles no problem (whether gcc does something useful with it is another story). In any case, the above macro will work with any compiler which does support the restrict keyword in whatever mode it is used (c99 ir not). In addition, it does not rely on B_GNUC_RESTRICT being defined to activate "restrict." Of course, switching to c99 makes this whole discussion irrelevant.
