If your compiler does not reject that program it is not a conforming
C compiler. The semantics according to C standard is that a diagnostic
message must be given. The standard does not specify what happens if
you execute that program anyway.

You've cross-posted this to comp.lang.c after a long-running discussion
solely on comp.theory. Presumably you're doing that because you want
some discussion about what the standard says about this code. For the
sake of those of us who have not been following that discussion on
comp.theory, could you please identify what it is that you think renders
this code invalid? Offhand, I don't see anything wrong with it, but I'm
far more reliable when I say "I see an error" than when I say "I don't
see an error".

Fully operational software that runs under Widows and Linux

No, it does not. As the program is not strictly comforming
and uses a non-standard extension some implementation may
execute it differently or refuse to execute.

Which non-standard extension does it use?

The main question is whether both arguments of H on the line 00 can have

How does the D that is correctly simulated by H different from any

In the above case a simulator is an x86 emulator that correctly

That P is correctly simulated by H is proven by the fact that
every assembly language instruction of P is correctly simulated
by H in the order specified by the x86 assembly language of P
even when H correctly simulates itself simulating P.

So, which instruction CORRECTLY SIMULATED allows H to CORRECTLY DETERMINE that its input is non-halting?

 *THIS IS A NEW POLICY THAT I HAVE JUST BEGUN ENFORCING*
I am using categorically exhaustive reasoning that can work
through every possibility that can possibly exist in a feasible
amount of time as long as the category is very very narrow.

But if you can't precisely define the category, or the attribute you are studying, you can't do any of that.
So, you need to do that before you go on.

 Enlarge the category a tiny little bit and then the time
becomes infeasible.
 The tiniest little divergence from the title of this
thread and I totally ignore and erase everything else
that you say.
 

And you just waffling and not getting to defining what you need to just wastes everyone's time.
You may have in your mind a very good idea of what you want to do, but until you EXPRESS IT with PRECISE WORDS, no one can help you,
