then yes. These are leftovers from Teamware, before we moved to
Mercurial. Removal of these are part of our pre integration check (hg
pbchk), they are being deleted as files are modified.

I think he's referring to the even older stuff that looks like this:

        #ident "%Z%%M% %I% %E% SMI" /* SunOS 4.1 1.6 */

It's astounding that they'd bother to error out on #ident (why not just
ignore it already? do you just hate your user base?), but unthinkable
that they'd do this to the still-in-use #pragma.

If so, then that should go as well.  But I'd count any compiler that
errors out on it without even a command line option to fix things as
hopelessly broken.

That said, IMO, we really ought to be nuking these #ident's.

But yeah, the fact that gcc barfs all over this by default is IMO a bug.
