    While compiling Nnap (latest SVN-repo version) using MSVC v18, I see
    this:

    cl -nologo .. -c TargetGroup.cc

    identifier 'or'
    TargetGroup.cc(641) : error C2065: 'or' : undeclared identifier

    (gcc includes iso646.h/ciso646 internally). So can you please add
    a '#include <ciso646>' somewhere? Or just drop those IMHO silly ISO/C++
    features.

    The history of TargetGroup.cc:
      [2]https://github.com/nmap/nmap/commits/master/TargetGroup.cc

    don't indicate when this was added. Is the version at Github unrelated
    to the real thing at [3]svn.nmap.org/nmap?



I'm sorry, I introduced this on 11 March in r34089. I did not intend to use
such an odd feature, and I'm surprised it compiled at all. My mind must not
have been working in C mode. Do you know of a good way to check for
non-standard features like this that I could add to my commit hooks?

I've done this before too, like in r25054. It works in GCC so I didn't
notice right away.
