I've never or heard of such a thing; I don't think we need to worry about it. > it is a style issue. also generated parsers > now have additional external linkage to > puts+putc next to printf, right? > older generated parsers only linked to printf. Not true. GCC optimizes printf calls into fwrite etc. calls, when GCC can determine that the format string doesn't contain any % specifiers. So older generated parsers already linked to functions other than printf. But anyway, I'm tired about arguing about style issues so I undid the change.
