There are compilers that don't support C11. Knowing that downgrading to C99 is a simple procedure is worthwhile.

Sure, but that wasn't my point. almost C99 is unclear, unless you already know the intent. It's telling me which language the framework isn't written in.

90% C99, 10% C11 would be fine.
