The C compiler has all of the ANSI features, but it deals with
certain preprocessor functions (e.g., stringization) in a
slightly non-standard way. There may be a few other differences
as well, but the preprocessor stuff is biggest one.

We don't advertise MPW C 3.0 as being ANSI compatible because
of this, and because we are waiting for the standard to be finalized.
We will release an "ANSI" version after a final, approved standard
is published.
