@RichFelker Everything that's wrong with GNU in a header: "Default standard is now GNU11".

@laurentbercot It's a big improvement versus gnu89, but still leaves a lot to be desired. Floating point is broken-by-default on x86. -
@RichFelker My point was they define GNU11 as a "standard". And the default. Because, you know, C11 isn't NIH enough. -
@laurentbercot Dropping support for all extensions by default would be a major regression for nearly all real-world usage. -
@laurentbercot See how hard it was to use musl before we had default-features, i.e. this commit: http://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/commit?id=c1a9658bd19245ff0fb52d3da567815d822fb622 … -
@RichFelker Oh, definitely. And I accuse GNU of *encouraging*, if not creating, the use of nonstandard extensions without f. t. macros. -
@laurentbercot Every historical unix did it, and this practice predates existence of standards. Half the purpose of FTMs is to suppress it. -
@RichFelker GNU more than any other Unix is guilty of https://xkcd.com/927/ . And FTMs would be a good thing if they worked... - 1 more reply
