I'm not sure if MSVC and MSVC++ are the same thing, but I surely remember reports by MSVC users only a few years ago that Cython generated C code contained a declaration after an executed code at some point, and that failed to compile for them. So, assuming that MSVC++ "added this extension in the early 90s" and didn't remove it in the meantime, they must be two different things. Stefan
