I guess that depends on your definition of "portable", then. I tend to define that as conforms-to-POSIX-and-C89. YMMV.

Not that there is any great need to continue this discussion, I'm not going to make a big deal of it as I already mentioned, just pointing out that this will (as I know from experience) prevent me from building GNU stuff in the future on some platforms.

So far it's been a while since I've tried to build anything new, which is why I haven't been complaining, and I may /never/ try to build anything new. Ergo not worth worrying about on my account; for now, possibly for ever.
