The following "bit patterns" from ascii(7):

 | 91  [ | 92  \ | 93  ] 
 |123  { |124  | |125  } 

They look different on an ISO-646 terminal, but the C compiler don't
know this.

Of course, a danish C compiler might allow the programmer to use
[\]{|} as letters in identifiers, and require him to use trigraphs for
braces, brackets etc.
