Yeah, I (and I think quite a few other people) prefer variables to be as
short-lived as possible. Mixing declarations to achieve that is something
we do at least in all the Intel and NIR code. Separation was required for
a while in core code because of VMWare's use of MSVC but now that they've
moved on to a MSVC version that has a competent C compiler, I think mixing
is allowed there too.
