What I'm concerned about is portability. If the compiler is allowed to
refuse my program even though there is no paragraph saying that my
program is illegal, then perhaps some other compiler will compile it
without any trouble. Which means that my program will not be portable,
even though it might not touch any implementation limits or other
similarly valid reasons.
