I read in comp.std.c that MS stated that they will not be developing
their C compiler further (and presumably not updating their DinkumWare
C library, but you can buy it at www.DinkumWare.com); their efforts
will be going into C++ and .NET (so expect to see future MS versions
of C++, with anything not in the CLR dropped).
