It looks like __hwloc_restrict is not actually checking for C99, but
instead doing something GNU specific:

#if (__GNUC__ > 2 || (__GNUC__ == 2 && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 95))
# define __hwloc_restrict __restrict
#else
# if __STDC_VERSION__ >= 199901L
#  define __hwloc_restrict restrict
# else
#  define __hwloc_restrict
# endif
#endif

Wouldn't it be better to add a feature test for restrict, instead of this?
