Thanks for this. If you can find a copy, I have found “The Annotated ANSI C Standard” by Herb Schildt (McGraw-Hill Osborne Media 1993) to be very useful.

I'm afraid that particular author is legendary for having been ridiculed, as far as the term "bullschildt" having been coined on Usenet.

The book was useful, if you ignored Schildt's annotations, and just used it to get the text of the standard (or most of it).
