Im in the wg14 and this is not true. The later versions of the C standard are not dependable and diverges quite a bit from implementations. There are lots of things in the C standard text that you should not depend on. There are in fact extensions that are more commonly implemented than standard features, and some standard features that hav no known implementations. I hope to work on a guide for developers who want a “dependable-C” where they can guarantee it will compile and run correctly in as many implementations as possible.
