It's a perfectly valid program for a freestanding C implementation.
The entire C standard library is even available, and most of it[1] works
as advertised, which is rather more than is required of a freestanding
implementation.
(I'll leave it to others to refer to the precise definition of what
makes an implementation freestanding and draw the obvious conclusion
about the platform it's running on.)

I just thought it would be more topical to tune from C. That would have
been fine if I'd got the pitch of C right.
