I find it strange that people are continuing to reinvent nested functions
in ugly ways.
No offense, but Ruby and Python users would probably get a good chuckle at
hearing the D creator saying that ;)
Perhaps they would, but I think they would agree that a nested function
should follow the same syntax as a regular function.
But in the case of C/C++, I consider it a minor miracle that they were able
to pull it off without making it 10x uglier than what they actually ended up
with.
For C++0x it's unnecessarily complicated - and they still don't have
just plain old nested functions. C has no nested functions.
