Dear Matthew,

I will add some warning message for operator '**' and few other special
extension with '-v' option or '.debug' command.  But this feature will only
display some obvious cases, not all the non standard comliant cases.

Thank you
Masaharu Goto

======================================================================
Is there a mechanism to turn off the cint extensions (such as the '**'
operator)?  Or, alternatively, is there perhaps some mechanism to turn
on warnings whenever one uses a non-ANSI C/C++ language construct?

Please don't misunderstand me - the cint extensions are very useful, and
we all appreciate them.  I understand that if a root/cint user wants
100% pure C/C++, then that user should be using a native compiler.

However, a mechanism to turn off the cint extensions (or alternatively,
to enable warnings when they are used) would help tremendously in cases
like Joerg's, where he expected '**' to give him C/C++ semantics and not
Fortran 77 semantics.
