Re: C89 "bug"

Does anyone knows how can I convert this code (external declaration) to C89?
 
union U {
    int i;
    double d;
};
 
union U  u = {.d=1.2};
 
The problem is that in C89 only the first member of the union is
initialized.

The following:

union U {
    int i;
    double d;
};

union U u = (union U)(1.2);

is accepted by 'gcc -S -std=c90'.  I leave to others to check
if this is valid C89.
