I quoted badly. My question "is there really ..." was not meant to refer to the
cheap prize, but to the sentence before: "ANSI and Iso standards are basically
the same ...". I thought, this was true for C89, but not for C99.

And of course, if one is really interested in all the details, the real Standard
for a cheap prize will be better, than a draft.
