see /sys/doc/ape.ms (or pdf versions of it) for details and other things you might need anyway

C standards still insist on the annoying need for forward declarations.
if it has compiled on other compilers without fuss you should use better
compilers (or more likely many of the right -W options for gcc, but not too
many or it will moan about purely stylistic things!)

the usual arithmetic conversions apply (because the expression evaluates
to a single value of which ever type encompasses both true and false arms,
not values or non-values of two completely different types, such as a struct
and an int, or a void and anything else)
