True. >Currently for OpenVMS, ANSI aliasing is active. Actually, we explicitly turn it off in configure.com: $ IF Dec_C_Version .GE. 60200000 .AND. archname .NES. "VMS_VAX" $ THEN $ echo4 "adding /NOANSI_ALIAS qualifier to ccflags." $ ccflags = ccflags + "/NOANSI_ALIAS" $ ENDIF The last time this came up, which was maybe five years ago, we had to do this because the sources were nowhere near being in compliance with the ANSI aliasing rules.
