Hmmm.  Then it will break on a lot of compilers.  That was forbidden
in ISO9899 until the 1999 ammendments.  I suppose if you want to say
that moz-bonobo is written in the 1999 subset of ANSI C then that's up
to you, but perhaps you ought to assert this more prominantly.  

BTW Does mozilla itself not support bog standard C --- I doubt it
would be as portable as it is if it didn't.

     Yes, that's a well-known problem. I'll have to go over all used
     headers/libs and add them to the configure.in file.
     
Thanks.
