The keyword is not ignored: you get a warning. This is ANSI compliant;
the compiler is required to diagnose the error, it may still chose to
compile the program (as an extension).

If you absolutely want compilation to fail, you should pass the flag
-pedantic-errors

This was a good choice. Since you've suspected a bug,
egcs-bugs@cygnus.com would have been even better.
