I think it is. ANSI C99 says this about linkage:

  6.2.2 Linkages of identifiers

  1 - An identifier declared in different scopes or in the same scope
  more than once can be made to refer to the same object or function by
  a process called linkage.(21)

  (21) THERE IS NO LINKAGE BETWEEN DIFFERENT IDENTIFIERS.

(my emphasis)
