This is beside the original question, but gnu99 also alters the 
behaviour of the compiler, like inline syntax, switch types etc, 
depending on gcc version.
In an ideal scenario our "own" world should be strict C99 (or, maybe C11 
soon?) and use the __ keywords for extensions.

But, this is a bigger task than fixing the comments above :-)
