C3 0.8.3 introduces @feat attribute as the new standard for top-level conditional compilation, replacing the problematic @if approach. The change addresses fundamental issues with C3's multi-pass compilation where @if's arbitrary compile-time expressions caused unpredictable analysis ordering and subtle bugs.
Background
C3 is a systems programming language designed as a modern successor to C with improved safety and ergonomics. This release focuses on refining the language's compilation model.
