BTW, these days I always compile things with

Just out of curiosity, why do you prefer declarations before
statements?
I won't speak for Junio, but the explanations I've heard in the past are
basically:
1) It keeps all declarations in one spot.
2) If your function is complicated enough to not need a variable until
fairly far into the function, it probably should be two (or more) functions.
3) Not all compilers support it.
