From the manual page
-Amode Specify the compilation standard to be used by the
compiler. mode can be one of the following letters:
-------------------------8<------------------------------------------
e Extended ANSI mode. Same as -Aa -D_HPUX_SOURCE
+e. This would define the names (macros and
typedefs) provided by the HPUX Operating System
and, in addition, allow the following
extensions: $ characters in identifier names,
sized enums, sized bit-fields, and 64-bit
integral type long long. Additional extensions
may be added to this option in the future.
Basicaly if you use -Aa to get ANSI C then you get just ANSI C
and no access to normal Unix features. by using various -D
options you can select the standard you would like to conform
to. -D_HPUX_SOURCE allows access to the full range of features.
-Ae is a quicker way to get this.
