I would like to have the former, actually.  I find it quite a bit more
elegant to do something like this:

  mixed *arr;

  for (int i = 0, sz = sizeof(arr); i < sz; i++) {
      ...work with arr[i]...
  }

Than this:

  int i, sz;
  mixed *arr;

  for (i = 0, sz = sizeof(arr); i < sz; i++) {
      ...work with arr[i]...
  }

On top of that the 2nd bit of code polutes the namespace with two
variables that I may not be using anywhere else in the same block
anyway.

Of course, this brings up a different (and possibly equally old)
discussion about initializing variables in declarations. ;-)
