ANSI string concatenation in i386/cygwin.h

[Richard Kenner]

    I have to say this... the K&R rule is preposterous for code specific to
    targets that never had a K&R compiler, e.g. Cygwin.  Why waste any energy
    on a non-problem?

In a word: consistency.

We want all of GCC to look very similar and use the same style.
>From a pragmatic point of view, we want to feel free to copy code from
one file to the other.

Also, we don't want to have to constantly make conclusions like the above,
taking each file in isolation and seeing if it is indeed only used on
systems that never had a K&R compiler.

Indeed, in this case you are *wrong*!  i386/cygwin.h is a *target*
file and you can easily make a cross-compiler from a *host* that has
K&R to the Cygwin target.  You'd have a much stronger case with 
xm-cygwin.h, but even then I'd disagree.
