 Message        HP C allows the initialization of a variable with
                extern storage class.  This differs from the VAX C
                behavior.

 Description    VAX C does not allow a variable with extern storage
                class to be initialized.  HP C will allow this, even
                in vaxc mode.

 User Action    Be aware of this difference if you plan to compile
                the source with VAX C.
