I gave it some thought, at first considering that going lower than GNU89 was possibly not very useful, but given that the changes are very small in the end (mostly comments formating), I think that you're right. The cost of reaching this level of portability is basically zero once the patch is applied so I think it's worth doing it now. However I think I will indeed squash all the comments patch together as you suggest. Thank you! Willy
