We had a discussion about this back in 2011. Any compiler which needs these statements is definitely buggy -- the C standard mandates that they're not needed. Unfortunately Jan never said what compiler he was using; obviously the ones the rest of us were using at the time didn't have the bug. http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/102980/ has the discussion. -- PMM
