------- Comment #11 from acahalan at gmail dot com 2006-04-24 04:10 ------- When did gcc suddenly stop accepting new extensions?
For years gcc has been more of a practical real-world compiler than a pedantic standards-only compiler. Many extensions have been added, both useful and useless. Just look at the list of them. Much of gcc's popularity has historically had to do with making things easy for programmers. Don't let us down now that the alternatives have gone extinct. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27235
