The following C99 features are supported by any buildbot compiler (including
obscure ones on snakebite):
- stdint.h
- static inline functions in header files
- extern inline functions (not really necessary for CPython)
- variadic macros
I'd like to add:
- standard conforming C99 spelling of the "struct hack" (supported by gcc
since I can remember). Our current way leads to problems for some
analyzers.
Some people (not me) would like:
- variable declarations everywhere (rather than only at the beginning
of blocks).
I think this would probably be enough for the start. Obviously things
like variable-length arrays should never be used anyway.
