GCC accepts constructs such as :  float p = 0x.p5;
.As per C99 Standards the grammar for hexadecimal floating points is as follows
: 
hexadecimal-floating-constant: 
                            hexadecimal-prefix hexadecimal-fractional-constant 
                                      binary-exponent-part floating-suffix(opt) 
                            hexadecimal-prefix hexadecimal-digit-sequence 
                                      binary-exponent-part floating-suffix(opt) 

hexadecimal-prefix: one of 
                           0x 0X 

hexadecimal-fractional-constant: 
                   hexadecimal-digit-sequence(opt) . hexadecimal-digit-sequence 
                   hexadecimal-digit-sequence . 

binary-exponent-part: 
                   p sign(opt) digit-sequence 
                   P sign(opt) digit-sequence 

hexadecimal-digit-sequence: 
                   hexadecimal-digit 
                   hexadecimal-digit-sequence hexadecimal-digit 

floating-suffix: one of 
                     f l F L 


As per the grammar to my understanding, the above construct is invalid.
