I don't have a copy of C90, so I can't be sure. I do know that a
definition for "trap representation", and wording that made use of that
term, were added in C99. That addition was bitterly debated - it was
felt by many that the wording of C90 already clearly allowed for trap
representations, without explicitly needing to name them as such; I
think there was even a DR whose resolution said so, possibly implicitly.
Personally, I think it's convenient to have a name for them, and
explicit mention of their significance, even if it is in fact
technically redundant.

I believe that one possibility allowed by C90 was an integer type with
one or more padding bits. Such a padding bit could be either a mark
parity bit, or an odd parity bit - either of those options would
prohibit 0 from being represented by all-bits-zero.
