It would be possible for the most part (perhaps a few hickups in some  
small locations).  Some people have a liking for that kind of  
initialization, though.

A few side notes:
1) Would a MSVC compat header/compilation mode make sense?
2) It seems like there is a "screw them" attitude among certain people  
with regards to support for MSVC's (lack of) C99 abilities, so #1  
seems unlikely.
3) Compiling to the shared subset of C and C++ might also fit with the  
compat thing.
