The pdf is searchable and I am experimenting with various
cross referencing options

gcc is one of the few compilers that is close to being C99 conforming.
As I recall it was never C90 conforming (I think there were a few tests
in the validation suites it failed).

ps.
I know there are some latex users on this list.
Suggestions on how to keep marginpars from appearing on a
different page to the text they should be in the margin of will
be most welcome.  The latex is automatically generated, so
a parameterisable solution is required.  I have tried putting
\nopagebreak[4] is various places.
