I get what you're asking for, and it's perfectly reasonable, but it's just not the compiler's problem. The C compiler does conform; it's the newlib C *run-time library* that is not C89-compatible. Gcc is doing it's part, but gcc does not supply stdio.h; it's up to the library to wrap the headers in #ifdef. > Which list do I need to go to to consult someone > about modifying newlib?

There's a newlib@ mailing list hosted at sourceware, and that's where to send patches; the home page has all the usual details of cvs access etc. and how to contribute. I'm sure your help would be welcomed! cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
