Given that NM is Linux-only, this seems fine to me; at this point, the
only real reason for sticking with C90 in the GNOME platform is to
support win32 (where MSVC does not and will not ever support C99); it
seems unlikely that in 2013 there is any other platform where NM could
even theoretically be built where there is a defensible reason to use a
non-C99 compiler.

You may need to specify --std=gnu99 rather than c99 to avoid warnings
about gcc extensions though.
