>Description:

GCC, both C compiler and preprocessor, should not honour digraphs in
strict ISO/IEC 9899:1990 mode.

>How-To-Repeat:

See testcase c90-digraph-1.c in
<URL: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2000-06/msg00898.html >.  The
quiet change involved in digraph support, tested by this testcase, is
described in ISO/IEC 9899:1990/Amd.1:1995(E) Annex H.1 (page 40).  The
testcase fails with gcc-ss-20000626.

>Fix:

Add flags for digraph support in the C compiler and the preprocessor,
and disable digraph support for -std=iso9899:1990 and -ansi (maybe
also -traditional).  Do whatever the right thing is when preprocessing
C++ and other non-C languages.
