Probably not as such: look at that piece of code:
http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=blob;f=libavcodec/snowdec.c;hb=HEAD#l536
and notice the use of named initializers. Now look at what happens when
named initializers are not possible (in this particular case because this is
c++, but would be true also for C89):
