Factor into your calculations that there IS NO STANDARD for many

Minor nitpick: actually the ANSI standard for C was passed years ago,
although ANSI compliant compilers have only recently become available
for many systems. The C++ ANSI standard is still several years away....
, and, in fact, there are large portability problems for non-trivial
non-Ada-based applications across even rather similar environments.
(Right now, I'm trying to port the Aegis project-control system from
Sun to Iris, and the bug-chasing is annoyingly complex...)
Is this the fault of the languages used or of differences between
operating systems?
