I'm happy to open another ticket for these, but have you tried using the bugtracker yourself? Is there some UI issue or something that prevents you from opening tickets?

- Second, the workaround is error-prone. If the fields in the structure
are ever designated in an order that doesn't match their declaration order in the structure definition, we'll get a situation where C99-compliant compilers generate the code as intended, but where non-C99-compliant compilers fail, or worse-- generate different code.
I'm aware of that. That's probably why that C99 feature was added.
