The OS-9 C compiler is very close to a completely standard  
implementation of K&R C.  The main differences are no support for bit  
fields and that if you want to print floats or doubles using printf  
(and friends) you had to include a call to force those sections to be  
linked in your source.

As far as the Pascal compiler went IIRC there was some oddity about  
packed arrays and once of the keywords related to memory clean up  
didn't work.
