I believe that entries that alt versions are recommended to try first should say what it looks like in modern systems so much as what it looked like with systems of the time it was published. Other entries with this have to be located as well so I've put it in the todo.md file too.
1985 marked the second year of the International Obfuscated C Code Contest.
Look at the README.md file for the given winning entry for information on how

Hints against machine dependent code were added to the rules to avoid another 1984 style winner (1984/mullender). Rules and results were posted to net.lang.c and net.unix-wizards. Larry Bassel was invited to help in the judging. Awards were given to 5 classes of programs since we were unable to select only the best 4.
