Hmm, maybe I should take another look at http://bugs.python.org/issue4805 .

Note that issue #10359 was not about any real compiler - it was about
compiling with gcc -pedantic.  If we *require* pedantic c89 compliance
- we should add -pedantic -std=c89 to the standard build flags.
Otherwise no-compliant code will accumulate between "ISO C cleanups"
and such cleanups will continue to pollute VC logs.
