You right pre-3 versions of gcc need var declarations on the top of functions.

For now I post latest tarball with both you patches and some my code additions 
at http://ap-utils.polesye.net/.

I think the better way - its to send small patches against latest development 
tarball published at home page, because I dont use any version control system 
and ap-utils development not very intensive.

And please dont use ap-search - its only to my small research and absolutelly 
not useful for now.
