IMO we need to distinguish the public C API which should be as much
compatible as possible, target the oldest C standard, and the Python
internals can require a more recent C standard.

For example, today maybe it's reasonable to requires C99 for Include/
headers (public .h files) and support C11 for Python internals
(private .c files).
