Well, C99 *is* platform independant but honestly I'm shocked (but not surprised) that MS would ship a compiler not supporting this. I wrote that bit assuming everyone supported it by now and it is a lot clearer and more robust than the alternative. I suppose we need to decide on which version of C we should strive for. Cutting back to just ANSI is going to be quite annoying, thats 20+ years ago.
