I'll change those.

I'd normally agree with that, but I adapted to the code style in
util.c where variables used only inside a loop are still declared
outside of it.

Indeed, you're right with that one. Even though I didn't think
about it and it certainly is a good optimisation I don't want to
include it as there are some problems with that.
First option would be to reverse the list. It might either be
reversed on NoExtract parsing, resulting in conventions that may
introduce bugs more easily, or on each call of
_alpm_fnmatch_patterns which would certainly kill all benefit by
reverse-iterating.
Second option is using the prev links of alpm_list, zut by
default, they've got an infinite loop when using the prev links.
alpm_list_reverse handles this by backing up head's prev and
restoring it later. But that's not a nice solution which should
be used here, I guess.
So if I didn't forget an easier method I'm against that
optimisation. I guess it won't matter much anyway, as NoExtract
or NoUpgrade lists likely will not be that huge anyway.
