Well... What I'm worried about is that it is a ONE pass compiler. Doesn't
this mean we have to conform to the top down design? If it is infact a
one pass compiler as mentioned a couple postings ago then there is no
way in my opinion that it will become the standard compiler, plus most
C'ers are very defensive of K&R.
