I believe it is legal. See

That's true indeed.  Let me excuse me by pointing out that old habits
die hard. It _was_ legal C at the time I learned C. ;-)

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

#define print(p,s) int main(){time_t
t;char*b;time(&t);b=ctime(&t);b[24]=0;printf("('%s',
'%s')\n",b,s);return 0;}

print(getattr(eval("__import__('time')"),'asctime')(),"signature under
construction")

(four lines only, line wrapping has to be repaired)

C:\>signature.exe
('Sat Nov 30 14:15:10 2002', 'signature under construction')

C:\>python signature.c
('Sat Nov 30 14:17:42 2002', 'signature under construction')
