Hi, David. Should not the minimum version of c standard mentioned in the doc/building.html?

Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8224087 webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dholmes/8224087/webrev/ The need to remove a for-loop declaration expression to appease gcc 4.8 annoyed me enough to investigate setting C99 as our minimum allow C-language level when compiling. It turned out to be a lot more complex a situation than I thought due to toolchain quirks. See lots of details in the bug report. To summarise the changes: - gcc: force to -std=gnu99 - clang force to -std=gnu99 - Solaris studio - no effective change - Visual Studio - no change - xlc - no effective change (but we use the explicit flag rather than accepting it as default) I've checked how this works with all the toolchains except xlc as I have no access to that. Some assistance from someone who can verify the correctness on xlc would be appreciated. Thanks, David
