Yes, I in fact received e-mail from a compiler implementor at SGI
promising that this would be fixed in a forthcoming release of a
standard-conforming implementation.  (SGI's current release fails
to conform fully to the C standard in several ways, presumably
all to be fixed in the aforementioned forthcoming release.)
