When I asked a similar question at the Os9 seminar a few years ago
(the last as far as I know, although they have stated an intention to
continue them with a changed format eventually) Kim Kempf (the main
author of their C compiler) replied that he was on the ANSI committee,
and implied that ANSI compatability was definatly a goal.  (Some
companies won't commit to unfinished standards.  Ansi still hasn't
approved a C standard.)

Comparing 1.2 to 2.0 to 2.2 C compilers, ANSI compatability is geting
there gradually.  You should check Microware's area on Compuserve for
official press releases, information on current versions (2.2 isn't),
etc.
