I've seen some bad C code in my time, but never anything like this!

Man, I'm glad I learned ANSI C [1] instead of K&R C [2], if only to avoid egregious code like:

```

#define bitblt(s, r, d, p, c) (*((void(*)())0x430d6))(s, r, d, p, c)

```

I shudder to think of the toolchain where casting an integer to a function address is easier than linking [5] to the function.
