I like the C99 initialization.  I was tempted to make these changes
myself, but I had a concern so I never did anything.

What does Marcelo think about the C99 initialization syntax?  GCC 2.95
does not understand C99 and will fail to compile kernels that require
this syntax.  Is Marcelo willing to break 2.95 and require newer
compilers?  Is the MTD community willing to maintain two patch sets: one
with GCC initializers and one with C99 initializers? (granted the old
GCC way is deprecated).
