Subject: make gcc warn about c99 declarations
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2009 16:16:39 -0700 (PDT)
There were several patch proposals recently that had c99 style
declarations in the middle of a block.
There's a gcc flag that warns about that.

The configure.in patch below enables the flag if gcc supports it,
following the model for -Wno-pointer-sign

Please apply if appropriate.
