Re: (Off-Topic) Autoconf

   But in any case, how do I run the C preprocessor on my wristwatch
   from my Linux machine? The wristwatch doesn't *have* a C
   preprocessor.

You are joking with me, right?  Ever heard of a cross-compiler?

   Note that sizeof() is an expression, and cannot be used in either
   an ifdef or a type declaration.

So simply don't use it, figure it out at runtime.

   Little boy, I was working on GCC right about the time you were
   learning to read your first picture book. Do not pontificate to
   *me* about who GCC is for. From Richard I will take that (without,
   I might add, taking it terribly seriously). He has earned the
   right, because much of the earliest version of GCC was his
   work. What are *you* contributing (other than complaints and
   whining)?

Oh please, now you are just playing a dickhead.  You might want to
figure out what the heck the goal of the GNU project is.  It sure as
hell isn't to run on non-free systems, or running on non-GNU systems.
As for what I contribute, figure it out yourself, I haven't seen your
contributions, so I could ask the same of you, but I won't since it
has no relevance.

If you continue this idiotic crap I'll just refrain from answering and
forward your messages into /dev/null untill you get a remote clue
about how to conduct a discussion.
