    "Solution?" Are you asking us to rewrite K&R, or what?

    Well, if we all provided solutions for the ambiguous errata of K&R2 and
    posted them here and sending them to K&R errata site, and/or perhaps
    added to clc FAQ, I think would be useful to all.

    Myself am going to post here and send to that K&R errata site all the
    solutions I implemented for the ambiguous errata I have solved or others
    contributed solutions, with their names, when finished.

    The current solution I propose for this ambiguous errata is the addition
    of a sentence:

    "There is a distinction between storage duration and scope, though both
    are influenced by explicit and implicit storage-class specifiers", right
    after the sentence of A4.1, "Several keywords, together with the context
    of an object's declaration, specify its storage class".


    What does everyone think of this?
