Pacific C 7.45 isn't quite as ANSI-compliant as this file description would
have you believe; standard C macros such as EXIT_SUCCESS, EXIT_FAILURE,
plus functions such as strtol are missing.  For a shareware product
claiming to be ANSI C compatible, blatant non-compliance certainly doesn't
go down well.  Give me EMX/GCC any day (a freeware, fully ANSI/ISO
compilant C compiler).  :-)
