Won't it be a lot easier, and more flexible for industry,
if there is some commonly accepted intermediate language
for �Controllers that supports C well, but also supports
other languages?
the intermediate language then removes the need (and cost!)
for implementers to implement the complicated C stuff correctly.

OTOH, the makers of C compilers will not be happy, I guess,
if there is a solution that makes switching languages easy.
Oh well, I guess the makers of Ada compilers will feel the
same.
