I share Guido's priority there - source compatibility is more important than smoothing a few of C's rough edges. Maybe the next breaking change release this should be considered (python 4000... python 5000?)

I was simply pointing out that Guido's priority removes a lot of the usefulness of C99 at source level. I was not saying I disagreed. If we have to keep header files clean of C99 I think this proposal just adds clutter.
