From what I hear, there should be a new version of BDS C comming out that
is supposed to be "more K&R compatible".  That could mean anything from
fixing the I/O routines to adding auto initialization.  One thing that
it is supposed to have is a float data type (about time!!).  You might
want to check with the author to see what he really is doing for the next
release before you take on any really big projects for overhauling the
existing BDS C.
