Unary plus was going to have this property, but when the decision
was made to honor parenthesis grouping, that aspect of unary plus
was rescinded.

K&R/2 is close enough to the finally approved ANS to serve as a guide.
Plum Hall has a book entitled something like "Notes on the Draft C
Standard" by Tom Plum that covers the things you need to know.  I don't
recall whether it includes "noalias" but be advised that "noalias" did
not survive to reach the final standard.
