Uhm... isn't "®" a character outside the ASCII range ? Some compiles
might choke on this, i.e. the Sun Workshop/Forte/Studio compilers
require -xcsi ("... This option allows the C compiler to accept source
code written in locales that do not conform to the ISO C source
character code requirements. These locales include ja_JP.PCK ...") to
avoid occasional hiccups.
