Damn it, I hate the fact that C allows that now. I only ever do it by accident (the C++ side of my brain taking over) and it bothers me that the compiler no longer rejects it. I don't suppose you could work up a patch for it? I will do it if you don't have the time, but I don't have an old enough compiler to test it with so I might miss something, being stupid and all.
