Shouldn't ANSI have provided nonvolatile instead of volatile?

I couldn't agree more.  ANSI C should codify existing practice, rather than
introduce a new language with subtly different semantics than K&R.

And they should not have mucked with so many include files.  

Thank God they backed down on noalias!  But why did they keep trigraphs?
