Yes. I wrote it myself. Feel free to do what you like with it.
There is a bit more of the program which prints out defined symbols,
e.g.
#if defined(__STDC__)
(void) printf("__STDC__ defined\n");
#else
(void) printf("__STDC__ not defined\n");
#endif
#if defined(_POSIX_SOURCE)
(void) printf("_POSIX_SOURCE defined\n");
#else
(void) printf("_POSIX_SOURCE not defined\n");
#endif
The list of symbols so tested is specific to the platforms that I
compile on (AIX, HPUX, ISC, IRIX). It needs to be tweaked to look at
interesting symbols on other platforms.
