Personally speaking, I agree with you that the compiler should issue a warning and then go ahead and compile the call. I don't think we gain anything useful by compiling a runtime abort in this case. The spirit of C is to let the user shoot themselves in the foot if they really want to. Any contrary opinions? Ian
