Where "core C" means the part of C described in section 6 of the
standard.

Does that mean you don't use the standard library?  How do you
do I/O?  String operations?  Math functions?  Dynamic memory
allocation?  Or do you work in an environment where those things
are either unnecessary or unavailable?
