What I'm trying to say is:
* Reasonable recent compilers support c99 features without -c99
explicitelly passed on command line
* It's a very bad idea to hardcode switches in random leaf Makefiles
as from maintenance point of view this is real disaster
If we ever want to stick to some C standard it has to be a top level
decision, but honestly I do prefer the compiler defaults.
