wanted: ANSI C on a Pyramid

We want an ANSI C compiler for our Pyramids.

Unfortunately, Pyramid don't seem to be in a hurry to ANSIfy cc, and
last time I checked, GNU C (1.37.1) admitted that <stdarg.h> uses a
different parameter passing mechanism than the Pyramid compiler and
therefore the library.  Programming without printf can get boring :-(. 

Questions:

* Are Pyramid planning to convert cc to be an ANSI compiler? Which
version of OSx will this come with?

* Has anybody fixed gcc to do the right thing (in -ansi mode)?
