This lack of standardization already existed in the first ISO C from
1990 (which is the same as ANSI C from 1989).  The current crop of
compiler maintainers like to blame the standard for their own
misdeeds, but it's their decision to compile programs differently than
their compilers did earlier, the standard did not force them.

And yes, you are right, when interpreted the way these C compiler
maintainers do, C is a language full of hazards, and there are hardly
any programs written in C; "Hello, world", and not much else.

>I wonder if the approach to parallel programming isn't upside down.

It's not a real approach to parallel programming, i.e., nobody writes
f()+g() with the expectation that the compiler will produce two
threads for the two calls.  It is, however, what some compilers try in
order to beat other compilers in the SPEC CPU game (and it seems that
this is the only thing that counts for the compiler maintainers).
