Would anyone care to comment on the availability of ANSI-conformant
compilers, or at least, compilers that handle ANSI extensions like
prototypes? If I start ANSI-fying existing classic C code, how
likely am I to run into a platform on which I can't compile it?

Just about everything I currently deal with has gcc, which takes
care of the problem, but you never know. Are compiler producers
ANSI-fying their compilers rapidly?
