The Harbison & Steele 2nd edition has been out for six months or so -- it
is based on the last-but-one ANSI draft and ought to carry any careful
reader for years to come.  "PS Don't use NOALIAS" is all the update you
really need.  I really think things are stable enough at this point that
we can trust the leading names in C textbooks.
