Hi Ben,

sorry for not catching this earlier:

Git's source code still tries to abide by C90, and for simplicity's sake,
this extends to the Windows-specific part. Therefore, the `ntdll` variable
needs to be declared at the beginning of the function (I do agree that it
makes for better code to reduce the scope of variables, but C90 simply did
not allow variables to be declared in the middle of functions).

I wanted to send a patch address this in the obvious way, but then I
encountered these lines:

It turns out that we have seen this plenty of times in Git for Windows'
fork, so much so that we came up with a nice helper to make this all a bit
more robust and a bit more obvious, too: the DECLARE_PROC_ADDR and
INIT_PROC_ADDR helpers in compat/win32/lazyload.h.

Maybe this would be the perfect excuse to integrate this patch into
upstream Git? This would be the patch (you can also cherry-pick it from
25c4dc3a73352e72e995594cf1b4afa46e93d040 in https://github.com/dscho/git):

Subject: [PATCH] Win32: simplify loading of DLL functions

Dynamic loading of DLL functions is duplicated in several places in Git
for Windows' source code.

This patch adds a pair of macros to simplify the process: the
DECLARE_PROC_ADDR(<dll>, <return-type>, <function-name>,
...<function-parameter-types>...) macro to be used at the beginning of a
code block, and the INIT_PROC_ADDR(<function-name>) macro to call before
using the declared function. The return value of the INIT_PROC_ADDR()
call has to be checked; If it is NULL, the function was not found in the
specified DLL.

Example:

        DECLARE_PROC_ADDR(kernel32.dll, BOOL, CreateHardLinkW,
                          LPCWSTR, LPCWSTR, LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES);

        if (!INIT_PROC_ADDR(CreateHardLinkW))
                return error("Could not find CreateHardLinkW() function";

	if (!CreateHardLinkW(source, target, NULL))
		return error("could not create hardlink from %S to %S",
			     source, target);
	return 0;

With this patch, this fixup to your patch would make things compile (you
can also cherry-pick d05996fb61027512b8ab31a36c4a7a677dea11bb from my
fork):
