Not sure which is the official source, but here's one: http://www.gnu.org/s/hello/manual/libc/Reserved-Names.html
Extract:
Some additional classes of identifier names are reserved for future extensions to the C language or the POSIX.1 environment. While using these names for your own purposes right now might not cause a problem, they do raise the possibility of conflict with future versions of the C or POSIX standards, so you should avoid these names. [..] Names that end with â_tâ are reserved for additional type names.
Good to know, thanks for the link. I'd probably say we are fine as we now use the same prefix on all of our exported symbols, so our chance of being in conflict with any future type name or function is slim to none. -Dan
