Maybe Pelles was just slavishly following the behaviour of gcc, rather 
than doing what makes sense and what users might reasonably expect.

What are the consequences of doing it lccwin's (and DMC's and MSVC's) 
way? Other than not diagnosing an error in a program that will later be 
compiled with gcc (which is the user's responsibility to verify anyway).

Will it cause any programs that compile on both to give different results?
