I was talking about the Hyper-V problem with a guy from MS, and he

FWIW, I'd rarely support changing style(9), unless it is actually
causing people to write bad code. It's designed to produce consistent
code, and changing it does not encourage consistency.
-Do not put declarations
-inside blocks unless the routine is unusually complicated.

I'm not sure I buy this - the initialisation is unlikely to move in
a piece of code, so it's as hard to find now as it was before. Editors
supporting finding declarations should be able to find initialisations
just as easily. (I'm old fashioned and do it via regexps.)
