Does PMAX Ultrix 4.0 cc *fully* support void pointers?

[Scott Weitzenkamp]

  We have a DECstation 3100 with Ultrix 3.0.  One of the bugs in cc is
that it does not have complete support for void pointers.  For
example, the following code will *not* compile:

int foo(void *ptr)
{
  printf("%d\n", ptr);
}

  Is this bug fixed in cc on Ultrix 4.0?  If not, then why the hell
not?  Why bother having prototypes and other ANSI features if you
don't fully support something as simple (IMHO) as void pointers?  Most
of the pcc-based cc's that I've come across (SunOS 3.x and 4.x, System
V/386 3.2) at least allow void pointers as function parameters.

  While I'm complaining, does the Ultrix 4.0 cc support the ANSI C
"const" keyword?
