There seems to be a decent amount of interest in moving to C99 as our base level of C support due to the many features it provides. Let's add a test balloon to make sure we haven't accidentally excluded any systems.

Changes from v1:
* Don't modify SPARSE_FLAGS since it's unnecessary.
* Improve commit message to explain why we use -std=gnu99.
