--- Comment #1 from joseph at codesourcery dot com <joseph at codesourcery dot com> --- I see nothing at http://gcc.gnu.org/codingconventions.html that would apply such a C++ coding practice to the mostly C-like code in GCC. Changes to coding conventions should be proposed on the g...@gcc.gnu.org mailing list, not in Bugzilla; the mailing list is a better place to get consensus on such things and Bugzilla is better for things that are unambiguously bugs rather than stylistic or possibly controversial. Personally I think such changes are pointless when ordinary C integer / pointer types are in use.
