News flash! It is 1996. All reasonable excuses for using K&R C
compilers expired years ago. gcc is more portable than Kerberos. I'm
confident that Windows compilers are all ANSI compliant. Why should
we expend effort to support obsolete compilers?
Amen. BTW, if you decide that it really is necessary to support
non-ANSI compilers, you may wish to consider some kind of thing like
ansi2knr which you can find with the ghostscript distribution. I
believe it is in the public domain and not copylefted or restricted
by the Aladdin license.
