Actually, it was a design decision to keep to the requirements set by
gnustep-base back when I initially wrote DBusKit, which at that time
included -Wdeclaration-after-statement. But since clang became my
household compiler, I find it increasingly tedious to keep to those
requirements. And as you mention, C99 is a sensible baseline nowadays.
So I will probably drop C90 (explicit) support after the 0.2 release.
For now, I applied Philippe‘s patch (thanks for that!).

Cheers,

Niels
