(The mailing list for the SC experienced some problems, which caused things to bog down a bit.) The verdict is in: it is OK to assume ISO C89 in all code in GCC proper. (In other words, libiberty and/or other libraries are not affected.) So, patches to do ISO C conversions on the mainline are hereby pre-approved with one caveat: I would appreciate it if people would wait until GCC 3.3 is out the door. The reason is that we're still applying a lot of patches to both branches, and that process is tricky enough without creating a lot of spurious merge conflicts. -- Mark Mitchell CodeSourcery, LLC mark@codesourcery.com
