By the way, the latest ISO C 9X draft has just been made available on
ftp://dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC22/wg14/index.html
Since C is the Ada programmer's prefered assembler language, I guess
this might be of some interest here as well.
Are there any special issues that the Ada community would like to see
fixed in the C standard?

Underscores in numeric literals!!! Given it's 0 impact on backward
compatability, the miniscule cost in implementing it*, on a cost
benefit ratio, this would have to be one of the cheapest changes
you could make.
