Which raises an interesting point.  Since the 2011 ISO C standard
officially supersedes the C99 standard, both C90 and C99 now have
exactly the same status.  They're both officially obsolete standards
that still have some level of support from current implementations.
(C90 happens to have more support than C99.)

I presume that no implementations yet support all of C2011.  Are there
implementations that support some of the new C2011 features?
