   Description
  </h2>
  <div class="indent">
   <p>
    Try to find a compiler option that enables usage of char-type to index a
    value-field. This one needs unsigned-chars and it must suppress warnings
    about usage of chars for subscripting. for gcc -funsigned-char
    -Wno-char-subscripts
   </p>
   <p>
    Currently this macro knows about GCC. hopefully will evolve to use: Solaris
    C compiler, Digital Unix C compiler, C for AIX Compiler, HP-UX C compiler,
    and IRIX C compiler.
