This is not the same. This int declaration is at the top of a block, and
that has always been valid C. The cpsups instance IS (was) the only one,
and it was introduced just a couple of weeks ago.

I routinely compile with gcc2, gcc3 and gcc4 just to catch the largest
share of problems.

And there are stricter compilers than gcc!
