[gcc.texi] Other compilers -> K&R C


It's been a decade since ANSI C came out, and I don't think
it right to claim most existing C compilers are non-ANSI.

	* gcc.texi (Incompatibilities): No longer claim most C compilers are K&R

! There are several noteworthy incompatibilities between GNU C and most
! existing (non-ANSI) versions of C.  The @samp{-traditional} option
  eliminates many of these incompatibilities, @emph{but not all}, by
! telling GNU C to behave like the other C compilers.
