My problem with newC is that I think it is going to cause confusing by
people who create new-style functions and call the language "C". I
recommend making our current code "C" style, and calling pre-7.1
functions "C70", that way, we can still enable old functions to work,
they just have to use "C70" to make them work, and all our new code is
the clean "C" type.
