Ultra cool.
This is perfect for obscure programming. I will integrate this in the standard workflow here at the office!

Sadly gcc complains a bit about this!
tassign.c:12: warning: target of assignment not really an lvalue; this will be a hard error in the future

with the option -fno-non-lvalue-assign
This will generate error:

tassign.c:12: error: lvalue required as left operand of assignment

Unfortunately I could not find any option to turn off the irritating warning.

Thanks ;-)
