Yeah, agreed. Though I hear that GCC makes similar assumptions, so this should count as something I think. (I don't have a source for this, so it should probably be verified.)

Anyway I don't think LLVM documenting its assumptions should be blocked on changing the C standard. Maybe LLVM should have blocked *making* those assumptions on changing the standard, but that ship has sailed long ago...
(I have less of an opinion about clang since I am not involved there.)

What would be the right place in LLVM to document this?
