    Hey g++ gurus whoever you are.
    
    Is there a g++ equivalent of $FORTRAN/CHECK=BOUNDS?
    I do not find it and I find it absolutely archaic and rediculous that in
    Y2k and beyond that we have regressed so far that our stupid compilers
    cannot check for bounds overflows if we so desire.  VAX fortran did that
    since 1979!!!!! That is probably the single most common problem that
    stops us cold and we have no way of diagnosing it.  Going from VMS to
    unix is bad enough.  This, if true, gets really rediculous.

    P. S. Hopefully someone will make a fool of me and tell me how to do it
    instead of admitting that no, g++ can't do it.  I will gladly be taken
    for a fool in that case.
