The C99 specification states in section 6.11.5:

The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the beginning
of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an obsolescent
feature.

Will apply, thanks!
Just to clarify: does some compiler/checker actually barf on this?

GCC does emit a warning if the options '-std=c99 -W -Wall' are present.
ICC also does warn about this, though I don't know whether this depends
on any commandline options.
