According to the ISO/IEC standardization working group's 
(http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/) technical report draft 
(http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1021.pdf) the above is 
quite near. On page 37 it says that "in addition to the generic address 
space, an implementation may support other, named address spaces". Then they 
give some examples:

_X char a, b, c;

Thus

_fl const int Array[7] = {0x10,0x20,0x30,0x40,0x50,0x60,0x70};

might be possible in future.
