In MPFR, we use that together with -pedantic-errors mainly for testing
purpose, to ensure that MPFR still builds on a C90 or C99 platform,
e.g. all non-portable extensions that we use should be optional.
And conversely, we do not want to require -ansi or --std=c99, because
extensions are useful for efficiency or for some special features
(e.g. logging).
