I don't feel guilty at all calling code portable even though I know it would not compile on a Version 7 UNIX system. " Of course GCC has a much more agressive view of portability, but it certainly would be nice to see more standardization here, and for example, it sure would be nice if everyone's make utility implemented at least vaguely the same semantics!
