One thing that struck me about that earlier gcc example, where the test for
"tun" is eliminated because of bad compiler reasoning,
is that the same compiler whines interminably until you put parentheses
round nearly everything. Ok, ok, some of the priorities in
C are weird for historical reasons, but it's very tedious wading through
parentheses in cases where the priority is indeed conventional.
