I'd probably be at most risk of not passing the phone screen, depending on how anal the interviewer is (read: whether they are a hard-core C programmer type). E.g. particularly if they asked coding questions about pointers and so forth. I've always hated C, ever since I tried to learn it in high school back in 1986 or so. The big picture stuff about bits and bytes and data structures I think I'd do OK on.
