It's easy to get the package to build again by passing -std=gnu89
and I commited such a fix in the git repository (see patch further down).
Obviously it's also possible to fix the codebase to be C11 compatible
(from experience on another package it's mainly a matter of adding the
required forward declaration of functions) but since you already informed
upstream about this, I believe this short term solution is more than enough
to get the package back in testing.
François, can you review and upload the fixed package or do you want me to
upload it?
