These assumptions are unsafe, esp. on non-mainstream architectures/OSes,
which only partially implement c99.
E.g. it's not that uncommon to find toolchains for embedded platforms
which implement most of C99, but with sizeof int != 4 or without
"select()".
well, noone forces you to use --assume-compliant-c99.
as outlined in my previous responses, the usage is *optional* and *not
default* and you would only use it on known non-broken platforms (i.e.
those that implement C99 to the letter of the standard, for example
linux + musl libc).
