   I'm familiar with generally applicable shop standards, just like you are   
   familiar with the C90 standard. So I speak from the experience of having been   
   thru multiple code audits, reviews, SOX audits from outside auditors....

   Its not like you've reinvented the wheel. IBM C predates your work by at least   
   two decades.... IBM has had C compilers running on the mainframe forever, and   
   GCC had an I370 target and was running on the mainframe long before you did   
   anything with it. IBM'   
   s C compiler actually handles records, and doesnt force people to play with   
   files like they are arbitrary byte streams...   
      
   Im not here to attack you. Im just pointing out that your work is merely   
   reproducing that which was already done.
