Well, that's great, but the C Standard only asserts that there are two
execution environments defined - it doesn't say how a particular
compiler discerns whether it is compiling for one or the other
environment.
I think this can only be solved by having a compile time switch that
makes clear which of the two environments one compiles for. It's
amazing to me that a compiler that's used so much in the embedded
community, doesn't even _have_ -hosted and -freestanding options.
