Actually, it complicates things even more, I'd think. We probably can't
just blindly add "-std=c99" to CFLAGS, as not all compilers would
support it (even if they _do_ support this construct).
Interestingly I have no problems compiling it here. I wonder if Stefan's
config.mak is supplying -std=c89 or some other restrictive flag. Or if
his compiler is a different version (though I tried with gcc-6, gcc-4.9,
and clang-3.8).
