DESCRIPTION
     Calls the C compiler (cc) with the given options, using a C language
     environment compatible with the specification.

     The following options are available:

     -pedantic           Issue extra warnings defined by ANSI for use of non-
                         ANSI features.

     -pedantic-errors    Issue errors instead of warnings that normally would
                         be presented by -pedantic.

     -D_ANSI_SOURCE      Tell the system header file set to use an ANSI-
                         conformant "clean" namespace.

     "cc:".
