This appears to be a seriously retrograde step. Bruce, why? I'm just enforcing this part of style(9): Only use the __P macro from the include file if the source file in general is (to be) compilable with a K&R Old testament compiler. Use of the __P macro in new code is discouraged, although modifications to existing files should be consistent with that file's conventions. In general code can be considered ``new code'' when it makes up about 50% or more of the file[s] involved. This is enough to break precedents in the existing code and use the current style guidelines. Bruce
