You know you've been using Unix too long when you parse this as:
$ tar cvf careless_hackers.tar *.c_coders
OBAda: I have some (small) sympathy with Joe Gwinn's position that some
combinations of Ada83 compilers may have produced very different
results. Imagine that you used a generic-sharing compiler orginally for a
memory limited system, and then tried to port that code to a similar target
that used expansion instead. Or tasking that mapped tasks to OS processes
vs. run-time scheduling (and you want to do blocking IO in the tasks.) One
of the phrases I remember least fondly when trying to explain why some
particular code was ill suited to a particular embedded
compiler/runtime/target.
"But it runs just fine on our Vax using DEC Ada!"
