Sure.

Well, the wording of SUS ("If there is no actual next argument, or if type
is not compatible with the type of the actual next argument (as promoted
according to the default argument promotions), the behaviour is undefined,
....") allows the behaviour of GCC. I think this might actually be a difference
between the old varargs.h and stdarg.h.
