Jochen Pohl's llib-lstdc >does this. I first notice the `const' problem in libpthreads it 1.1.5. It implemented ftell() correctly (though it's not incorrect to not modify the parameter) but I somehow misread the standard and thought that it was libpthreads that was wrong. >The newly-built lint buried another bogon out of the depths of the >header mishmash: we've got a name clash for struct pmap!

Another way is to change all typedefs in headers to ones that are allowed by standards but weird. Portable applications should still compile cleanly with maximal warnings enabled. Bruce
