You need to read up on your standards. The language called C
is defined by only one authoritative standard.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (E) (C)ISO/IEC
Contents ix
5 This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, ISO/IEC 9899:1990,
as amended and corrected by ISO/IEC 9899/COR1:1994, ISO/IEC
9899/AMD1:1995, and ISO /IEC 9899/COR2:1996.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thus, I need have no such qualifiers when talking abouit
conforming C implmentations.
