I very, VERY strongly advise you to decide what you mean by that. Very
few compilers that 'support' C99 do so for the whole language, and most
use the more system-dependent features in very different ways. In theory,
just enabling C99 could break code, and I know of a few ways that actually
occurs. I doubt that they will affect Open MPI.
