And, what about lint?  The output of lint under 2.2 bears no relation
to what is claimed in the documentation and still less relation to any
format that might lend itself to use with an "error" like message insertion
program.

By the way, why are prototypes claimed as "new" feature for 2.3?  The 2.2
compiler supports them!  The problem is that the header files don't have
them, and as a recent posting pointed out, the 2.2 documentation does not
bother to tell you that the compiler is capable of generating prototypes
(for your source code).
