    Cc has been renamed c89, and lint may become lint89.

Lint isn't in 1003.2 draft 9 (at least it's not in the index).
The name 'c89' is harmless, provided all implementors are sensible
enough to provide a 'cc' as well (in many cases these will be
different--c89 has to be ANSI but cc might contain ANSI-prohibited
extensions).  


Volume-Number: Volume 18, Number 17
