Actually this is required for the C standard, the early ones that we
use in PHP, whereas C++ allows them anywhere in a block, like PHP does
:)
By the way, since committing code with mixed declarations is a frequent
problem -- GCC accepts it even without -std=C99 yet the Windows builds are
broken --, we could make GCC treat this as an error with:
-Werror=declaration-after-statement
which gives something like:
foo.c:4:2: error: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code
