Why are there two different versions? I think this is a bad think (TM) in
itself. We may allow both styles, but if we rule we should rule.

Dependend on the context I find anonymouse parameters anoying. How should
you know wich one is the "flag" parameter if you pass four ints to a
function? Maybe I'm too much used to developement tools where you see the
function prototype as a tooltip in the text editor as soon as you type the
openening paranethesis after the function name.

This doesn't allow inline documentation of the parameters either. Shouldn't

static char *
function(
	int a1,	/* .... */
	int a2,	/* .... */
	float fl,	/* .... */
	int a4)	/* .... */

be an option?
