Let's just start using C99 features, and if anyone's compiler breaks on
something like CentOS 6 document that they'll need to tweak a flag
somewhere. We already know that works for all the other C99 features we
have, there seems to just be this one exception of the ancient GCC
version in this particular case.

Yeah, I definitely agree with this sentiment.
