The node (gcc-3.2.info.gz)"Constructing Calls", in "C Extensions", has this paragraph at the end: The reason for using names that start with underscores for the local variables is to avoid conflicts with variable names that occur within the expressions that are substituted for `a' and `b'. Eventually we hope to design a new form of declaration syntax that allows you to declare variables whose scopes start only after their initializers; this will be a more reliable way to prevent such conflicts. This does not make sense in that node, which doesn't describe the use of any local variables, with or without underscores. The paragraph seems to belong somewhere in the next node, "Typeof", which contains this example: #define max(a,b) \ ({ typeof (a) _a = (a); \ typeof (b) _b = (b); \ _a > _b ? _a : _b; }) >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
