C Guri:
In the Microsoft C compiler V4.0, '\x' is compiled as 0 on the
grounds that it's a brain-damaged version of '\x00'.  This is what
Microsoft's support group said when I reported what I thought was a 
bug.  I claim that '\x' is a perfectly fine representation of the 
character x and should have value 120 base 10.  How sayeth INFO-C?
