I'm currently compiling a very large legacy c++ program with g++ 2.95.1
The code has a large number of routines which were declared without
return types [i.e f() rather than int f() ] The compiles fail with the
message "ANSI c++ forbids declaration of 'f' with no return return type"
Is there a compiler option to relax the ansi standard of must I
spend a large portion of the remainder on my life adding return types to
every function in the code?

A look at the GCC docs that accompany gcc-2.95.1 should've given you
the answer (`info gcc invoking c++`).
See GCC documentation for -fpermissive option (C++ only). It's a bad
idea to have to use it for obvious reasons.
