Zortec's C++ V1.07c. I presume it's the most recent release since I 
was recently shipped it for review. It says __STDC__ == 1 and won't 
hand ??= as #. I'm sure it is missing numerous other things too - 
that's what my review will find out since it's an ANSI-conformance 
review for my Programmers Journal column.
