   Hep, as I supposed :) ...
   Is this either a standard or just a not-implemented
   feature by gcc?
   
   Do you have any advice about doing something like that?

   I need to initialize global vars while filling some table,
   but I don't want to fill this table within function call ...

   Is it definetly just impossible?

bye bye && thanks!
