Subject: [9fans] A Plan 9 C request....

Here's a request for my favorite C feature from C99, which isn't yet in
Plan 9 C.  I'd really like it if one could write statements of the form,

	for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++);

or

	for (char *p = s; *p != '\0'; p++);

That is, declare variables in the first part of a for loop.  That would
be nice.  Anyone care to add it to the compiler?  I'd try it myself, but
I'm just too busy right now....
