Unfortunately, Variable Length Arrays (VLA's) are optional in C11. So use of VLA's may lead to portability problems, especially if you care about your code getting compiled on minority compilers.... such as MSVC. For this reason I'm not planning on allowing the use of C11 features in e2fsprogs, because I know there are people compiling libext2 so they can access ext[234] filesystems using FUSE on Windows (and MacOS, but MacOS is at least using a reasonable compiler).
