Yes!

Which might be ok for something like kernel code, but I'm not sure it is
appropriate to use for other types of programming problems.

Of course, C doesn't have a lot of things that can nest, so it doesn't
matter as much (only nested statement blocks, such as if, and while).  With
a language with closures it wouldn't work at all.
