The real C standard is still K&R, 1st edition. Lots of UNIX boxes,
including Suns running SunOS 4.1.3 , do not have ANSI support. Many sites
have installed GCC to get ANSI support. You might set CC=gcc in the
top-level Makefile.
If you are running Linux then RUN don't walk to sunsite.unc.edu and look at
all the wonderful linux goodies. Follow your nose down to
Linux/apps/comm/term and you will find Sun4 binaries.
