I feel like we're missing some part of the design here. We only have a
single 'LangStandard' value active at once, but for (say) an OpenCL build,
we need *both* an OpenCL standard *and* a C standard.

At the same time, we have a long-standing issue where setting up CFLAGS is
difficult: there's no nice way to say "use C11 for C, and use C++11 for
C++", because build systems usually use the C compilation flags plus some
extra C++-specific flags for C++ builds, so we cannot put -std=c11 into the
C compilation flags (that makes the C++ builds fail).

This suggests to me that our 'language standard' should perhaps be a tuple
of all the relevant standards, so you could specify that you're using C89,
C++11, OpenCL v1.2, Blocks v<whatever>, OpenMP v<whatever> ... for builds
where those standards are relevant.
