The author of that code mixed up C and C++. The typedef only makes sense
in C (but the code will not compile as C). The constructor only makes
sense in C++ (but the typedef is meaningless in C++).

Let's not condemn a language just because it's used by at least one

And let's not condemn that person for wasting others' time, when we're
doing the same right here. :-)
