Top ten things overheard at the ANSI C draft committee meetings:
10. Sorry, but that's too useful.
9. But little-endian systems *are* more consistent!
8. I'm on the committee and I *still* don't know what the hell
#pragma is for.
7. Well, it's an excellent idea, but it would make the compilers
too hard to write.
6. Them bats is smart: they use radar.
5. All right, who's the wiseguy who stuck this trigraph stuff in
here?
4. How many times do we have to tell you, "No prior art!".
3. Ha, ha, they're actually going to adopt this sucker.
2. Than you for your generous donation, Mr Wirth.
1. Gee, I wish we hadn't backed down on 'noalias'.
