Pardon me as I am out of context. The xserver module is configured with
AC_PROG_CC_C99 that gets pulled in by XORG_DEFAULTS from util-macros.
It's not obvious, but it saves from copying this line in the 250 xorg
modules.
That's why we ask developers not to add AC_PROG_CC in configure.ac as it
turns the module back to C89. That isn't obvious either :-)
To find which of the two a module is using:
grep "^CC=" config.status
and you get:
CC='gcc -std=gnu99'
There are also a couple of options to fine tune the level of strictness:
--disable-selective-werror
Turn off selective compiler errors. (default:
enabled)
--enable-strict-compilation
Enable all warnings from compiler and make
them
errors (default: disabled)
I took this opportunity to explain this non obvious configuration to all.
