Oregon Software's Modula-2 compilers (Suns, VMS, 68K machines) all flag at compile time code that tries to change the control variable, pass it as a VAR parameter, etc. The correspondent indicated that any compiler that didn't perform these checks was not really Modula-2. Is there really a M-2 standard that compilers must meet (which of Wirth's books does it conform to - the 4th edition of "the" M-2 book just came out, with a few more changes to the language)?
