Good question, i don't know why configure didn't add -std=c99 to the CFLAGS.
Could you please take a look at config.log, or send a (compressed)
copy to the mailing list? That should say why; look for the
string "option to accept ISO C99". To be honest,
though, if this is merely a torture test for coreutils (to
see whether coreutils runs on a museum piece), it's probably low
priority.
We have this machine to run some legacy code. We need coreutils because
the system-supplied Unix tools have hardcoded limits, missing options, etc.
