It should work with any C compiler that supports the C89 standard.

I was looking for this sort of answer before.  I have been doing testing
with std=iso9899:1999 and so that is wrong.

Say what? I'm sure GNU Make is also designed to work with C99, with C11, with C18, and with C2x whenever it comes out.

I ran into this problem with the pre-release OpenSSL 1.1.1 code last[1]
year wherein I was doing testing with strict iso9899:1999 and found out
from Rich Salz that the codebase is strictly C89 only.  Given the range
of systems the OpenSSL project has to support I understand that. Here
with GNU Make we may face the same problem and so I am wondering what is
the actual dialect to adher to.
