Summary: reserved identifier violation

Initial Comment:
I suggest to try the search pattern "_+[A-Z]+" on the source files. You will find a couple of places where names begin with an underscore and an uppercase letter.

Examples:
- _GUID
  http://csound.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/csound/csound5/H/pvfileio.h?view=markup&revision=1.14

- __Brass_h
  http://csound.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/csound/csound5/Opcodes/brass.h?view=markup&revision=1.7

This does not fit to the expected naming conventions of the C language standard.

Message:
I will adjust a little as toime allows, but basically as we are writing a
library the rules are not so clear to me.

Which details are not readable in the referenced draft of the standard
"ISO/IEC 9899:TC2"?

(By the way: This issue was discussed in various forums already.)
