I agree with that. And I even hope that if GCC 4.7 defined several macros, one
for each
extensions, like e.g.
__GCC_HAVE_INDIRECT_GOTO__ for the goto *x; feature
__GCC_HAVE_STATEMENT_EXPR__ for statement expressions
etc then perhaps in several years other compilers would do likewise. We just
have to
document our features and their corresponding macros...
