Lattice C V4.1 does not conform to the standard that has been voted out.
With the V5.0 compiler, we have moved toward this standard.

Note that 4.x does not support sequence points, stringizing, adjacent string
concatenation, or the signed keyword.  These and many other issues have been
addressed by the addition of the ANSI features to the 5.0 product.
